About this project
The site at 513 1st Ave N in Seattle's Lower Queen Anne went through three design schemes before settling. An early rezone proposal under 3018022-LU paired 105 apartments with below-grade retail, and a parallel application (3021038-LU) offered a 4-story, 60-unit alternative. The scheme that advanced came through design guidance under 3029562-EG at 134 units and won a Master Use Permit (3029562-LU) for an 8-story, 127-unit apartment building with retail and parking for 28 vehicles.

The newest document in the file is a contact update sheet (EQP-SI-11232) dated June 2026. Correction letters for an outdoor seating permit (7099851-CN) were issued in September 2025, and the application remains in corrections. The permit would add outdoor seating for Woo Bar, the restaurant established in the ground-floor retail space under a completed alteration permit (6903332-CN). The building itself was completed in May 2025, when a Certificate of Occupancy was issued for the main construction permit (6686496-CN); a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy had been issued in February 2025.
