The U District to Get High Rises

By February 23, 2017

Et cetera

We’re excited that the Seattle City Council has approved a big U District upzone (Seattle Times).

The City Council on Tuesday unanimously approved an upzone that will pave the way for the University District to become Seattle’s next high-rise neighborhood.

In the works for years, the legislation raises maximum heights, allowing buildings to climb to 320 feet on some blocks near a light-rail station opening in 2021.

We strongly believe in increased density as a way of ensuring an adequate supply of housing to keep prices low. We do not want Seattle to repeat the mistakes that San Francisco has made.
