INTRODUCTION Many important and long planned transportation and development projects are scheduled for con- struction in Downtown Seattle in the coming years. While these investments are essential to support economic development and job growth and to enhance Downtown’s stature as the region’s premier location to live, work, shop and play, in the short-term they present complicated challenges for con- venient and reliable access to and through Downtown. The Downtown Seattle Association (DSA) and its partners, Historic South Downtown (HSD) and the Seat- tle Department of Transportation (SDOT), seek to ensure that Downtown Seattle survives and prospers during the extraordinarily high level of construction activity that will occur in the coming years.

  • A Different Kind of Gentrification: Seattle and Its Relationship with Industrial Land
    A Different Kind of Gentrification: Seattle and its Relationship with Industrial Land David Tomporowski A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Urban Planning University of Washington 2019 Committee: Edward McCormack Christine Bae Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Department of Urban Design and Planning College of Built Environments ©Copyright 2019 David Tomporowski University of Washington Abstract A Different Kind of Gentrification: Seattle and its Relationship with Industrial Land David Tomporowski Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Edward McCormack Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering / Department of Urban Design and Planning Industry in Seattle often talks about how they are facing their own kind of gentrification. Rising property values, encroaching pressure for different land uses, and choking transportation all loom as reasons for industrial businesses to relocate out of the city. This research explores this phenomenon of industrial gentrification through a case study of Seattle’s most prominent industrial area: the SODO (“South Of Downtown”) neighborhood. My primary research question asks what the perception and reality of the state of industrial land designation and industrial land use gentrification in Seattle is. Secondary research questions involve asking how industrial land designation and industrial land use can be defined in Seattle, what percentage of land is zoned industrial in the SODO neighborhood, and what percentage of the land use is considered industrial in the SODO neighborhood. Finally, subsequent effects on freight transportation and goods movement will be considered. By surveying actual industrial land use compared to i industrially-zoned land, one can conclude whether industry’s complaints are accurate and whether attempts to protect industrial land uses are working.

    To: Move All Seattle Sustainably (MASS) From: Heather Marx, Director of Downtown Mobility, Seattle Department of Transportation Date: December 31, 2019 RE: MASS priorities In December 2018, the Move All Seattle Sustainably (MASS) coalition requested action by the City of Seattle to prioritize efforts in 2019 that will keep buses movinG fast, enable a rapid shift to commute by bike, and make walkinG easy and safe. We agree with these goals as we work to keep people and Goods movinG durinG the 2018-2023 Seattle Squeeze, when construction will siGnificantly constrain our streets and impact all traveler movements. The Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT)’s workplans include many of the hiGh-priority projects identified by MASS, with implementation planned in 2019 or over the next few years. Input from MASS and other transportation stakeholders can help inform implementation priorities, and we are lookinG forward to your input. You’ll hear from MeGhan Shepard ([email protected]) on my team in January to discuss next steps as continue to plan the implementation of these important projects. Keep Buses Moving Fast MASS provided a map and list of corridors where they recommend bus priority implementation. The followinG is a description of existinG and planned bus only lane projects in each identified corridor. Existing Bus Only Lanes The followinG identified corridors have existinG bus-only lanes. Potential future considerations and challenGes are listed for each location. • Aurora Ave N: Southbound direction has current 24/7 bus only lane. The northbound direction will have a bus-only lane added between Denny Way and John Street durinG the SR99 closure to help transit move through this intersection.

  • 2018Annual Report 0114 2018 (002).Pdf
    We are building a city of the future with fewer cars, more transit, and less climate pollution. The Levy to Move Seattle is critical in delivering on that shared vision for a world-class transportation system that connects people to jobs, training, school, health care, and opportunity, and provides safe options for driving, walking, and biking. We have a responsibility to deliver on our promises to voters for safer streets, better roads, and more reliable transit options. That’s why in 2018, I asked the Seattle Department of Transportation to ensure we have a realistic plan for delivering on our Move Seattle investments, and to listen to the community on the investments that are most important to them. Now, we have a blueprint and clear path forward for delivering on Move Seattle investments. This report shows that we are making progress on delivering on some of the promises made and better aligning projects with the resources we have. The City of Seattle will continue to be accountable and transparent, and we will continue to partner with community to keep building a city of the future. Jenny Durkan, Mayor I am pleased to present my first Move Seattle report as Director of SDOT. This report memorializes an important year and substantial work that was accomplished, both to deliver on Levy commitments and to evaluate the Levy overall, through the Move Seattle Assessment. At Mayor Durkan’s direction and with help from the Move Seattle Levy Oversight Committee, our modal advisory boards, and third-party consultants, SDOT carefully analyzed the Move Seattle Assessment and published the Updated Workplan Report that outlines a clear and measurable plan for the remaining years of the Levy.
