About this project
In Seattle's Genesee neighborhood, 4508 California Ave SW is a 7-story mixed-use building holding 38 apartments and 20 small efficiency dwelling units, plus lodging and ground-level retail, with parking for 14 vehicles and an existing building cleared from the lot. Early design guidance (3032079-EG) had examined a larger 75-unit apartment scheme with 17 parking spaces. The issued Master Use Permit (3031518-LU) settled on the 58-unit mix, while a separate Master Use filing (3035169-LU) describing 44 apartments, 14 efficiency units, 12 lodging units and 3,900 square feet of retail was withdrawn.
