Willow Crossing Street Vacation

Review Status

On September 19, 2019, we reviewed the public benefit proposal for the Willow Crossing Street Vacation.  At this meeting we approved the public benefit proposal with two conditions.  This was our final full review of the project.  We will review the project again during a subcommittee meeting.

Project Description

The applicant is proposing to vacate an unimproved segment of 39th Ave S, south of its intersection with S Willow St, in the Othello Neighborhood. If the vacation is approved, a 7-story mixed use building would be constructed. The development would include ground floor commercial spaces along ML King Jr Way S, 211 residential units, amenities for residents and the public, and below grade parking with 42 parking stalls.  All of the residential units planned for the development will be for individuals earning 60% of area median income (AMI).
