About this project

For New Hope Baptist Church, 123 21st Ave in Seattle's Minor neighborhood is proposed as an affordable housing development. The scheme that went through early design guidance (3039504-EG) and a Master Use application (3038248-LU) was a 7-story, 70-unit apartment building — described with a community center in one filing and a food bank in the other — with parking for 13 to 15 vehicles and demolition of the existing building. Both land-use filings were later withdrawn, and the housing scheme was subsequently taken forward as a construction application (6846326-CN) described as an affordable housing development for the church.
