This report is exempt from public distribution and disclosure (RCW 42.56.300) ESA Project Number 150820.00 DAHP Project Number 2016-06-03962 Cultural Resources Assessment ABSTRACT The Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) is preparing to construct the Madison Street Corridor Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) project (Project). The Project includes construction of 11 BRT station areas with 21 directional platforms along a 2.4-mile corridor that includes portions of 1st Avenue, 9th Avenue, Spring Street, and Madison Street in downtown Seattle. Many of the proposed station locations either are paved sidewalks/roadways, or will be placed in islands in the center of the existing road right-of-way. The project is receiving Federal funding from the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), which requires FTA compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (“Section 106”). Environmental Science Associates (ESA) was retained by SDOT to conduct a cultural resources assessment for the Project. ESA conducted background research, reviewed existing cultural resource surveys, and inventoried historic properties. A project Area of Potential Effects (APE) was defined as an approximately 2.4-mile long corridor between 1st Avenue and Martin Luther King Jr.

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.
