About this project

A 7-story, 84-unit apartment building with retail and parking for 20 vehicles is the proposal at 2531 16th Ave S in North Beacon Hill, Seattle, with the existing buildings to be demolished. Early design guidance was conducted under 3032373-EG, and the scheme was carried in its Master Use Permit (3033531-LU), which was issued. The construction filing that followed (6775005-CN) covers the mixed-use structure as a whole.
