Downtown Seattle office buildings are generally 1 parking space per 1000 sf. That's one for every four or five workers. It's a good balance in my opinion. These towers would eliminate maybe 300 units of existing parking, which normally isn't considered but is sometimes.

Living nearby will be a good option. Lots of housing is going up or planned. Directly across the street, 654 units are underway in two towers on a half-block. Another tower just started a block west of that. Several other towers and woodframes are planned within a few blocks, and few hundred more units are underway. Developers will be lining up, some going beforehand, and others starting when Amazon does.
