- PSBJ, Trump seeking Seattle location:
Trump and Wood Partners LLC, a multifamily developer based in Atlanta, are in negotiations to find a site in Seattle for a hotel/condominium project, according to a report in the Atlanta Business Chronicle.
Further details about the size or location of the project weren’t available. Wood Partners did not immediately return calls.

- Seattle Times, Seattle may get taller — at a cost:
Developers should be able to build taller than current zoning allows if they pay for public amenities such as affordable housing, the Seattle Planning Commission said Tuesday.
Mayor Greg Nickels favors such a plan and is working on so-called incentive zoning proposals for the South Lake Union, Interbay and South Downtown areas. Nickels intends to roll out his proposals in the next year. They would be similar to new downtown building rules Nickels and the City Council approved last year.
The downtown rules let developers build more than 100 feet above zoning limits if they pay roughly $19 per square foot into an affordable-housing fund.

Well put a fork in Seattle - cause it is so done…..the condo market has tragically jumped the shark if Trump is sniffing around up here. Only he can develop a bigger, gaudier, more vulgar eyesore than the current reigning champ, Cristalla.

Next time you are in Manhattan (Upper West Side)…take a walk by his places on Riverside.
IMNSHO…they are pretty ugly.

A “Trump Tower” in Tampa isn’t going very well, apparently, and media coverage indicates Mr. Trump is licensing his name to be attached to projects with which he is otherwise uninvolved. Pretty funny.
