About this project

In Columbia City, Seattle, 5217 42nd Ave S is a proposed 5-story apartment building with 85 units. The scheme depended on rezoning a 21,886-square-foot portion of the site from a 40-foot to a 55-foot height limit, adding Mandatory Housing Affordability obligations, on land flagged as an environmentally critical area. Early design guidance (3025781-EG) contemplated parking for 34 vehicles below grade, while the Master Use Permit (3025781-LU) proposed 81 spaces and demolition of the existing structures. An earlier townhouse concept, 3 three-story townhouses under 3015905-EG and 3015905-LU, was canceled for inactivity.

Apr 3, 2024 update—

Follow-up inspection and compliance documents for a violation record (1052137-VB) dated April 2024 are the newest items in the file. In March 2024 the phased construction permit (6736360-PH) was documented, and a side sewer permit (7015038-SS) was also recorded that month. Both that phased permit and the Master Use Permit (3025781-LU) now stand expired, and the apartment scheme remains an unbuilt proposal.
