West Seattle development: New mixed-use Admiral proposal

| Development | West Seattle news

Checking the city land-use files to see what’s new, we find an early-stage proposal for a mixed-use building in The Admiral District, in the system as 2715 California SW but with a site-plan document showing 2719 California is also part of it. It’s described as a “four-story mixed-use project with residential apartments over ground floor commercial space and below-grade parking accessed from the alley” and listed as expected to go through the Design Review process. The site, across from Hiawatha, currently holds three small commercial/residential buildings. (Side note: This is the same block of California, between Lander and Stevens, where the PCC site is slated to be redeveloped, a few buildings to the south.)

I think that’s where Freshies is.

No, it’s further north. Freshy’s is a couple buildings down, and its address is 2735.

Is this where West Side gymnastics used to be? Where the mail place is?

WSB October 17, 2016 (1:07 pm)

Just south of there. The project does *not* involve the corner building, which is where the gymnastics place was and where the mail place was (Admiral Junction) until it moved last spring.

In looking at old West Seattle newspapers I found out that the building on the NW corner was a car dealership. Sorry I don’t remember what brand but it could explain the big doors on the north side of the building

*sigh*

This development will be displacing people as well as a few business.

Wonder when my landlord plans on sharing the big news? That’s right, I live at this address. I absolutely ADORE my apartment and this neighborhood! I’ll be terribly sad to have to leave it.

Sorry, comment time is over.
