That letter is being distributed to neighbors of temporary Seattle Fire Station 29, announcing that after nine months, FS 29 is moving back to its permanent North Admiral location a short distance south. The city’s Finance and Administrative Services Department says the upgrade work at Station 29’s 2139 Ferry SW site has reached “substantial completion,” so the crews who have been in temporary structures since last March can re-occupy the permanent facility, and are expected to move next Tuesday. The choice of temporary sites drew controversy early this year because the triangle of city land at Ferry/Hill/44th was a sudden change from the longstanding original plan to house the temporary station on a much-larger site off Harbor Avenue SW. The temporary site is set for restoration work next month, the city says, including “removal of asphalt and gravel, top soil/seeding, planting of street trees, and completion of the missing section of sidewalk along Southwest Hill Street.”
