  • Approval of Property Exchange & Development Agreement
    F–8 VII. STANDING COMMITTEES B. Finance, Audit and Facilities Committee Sound Transit U District Station – Approval of Property Exchange & Development Agreement RECOMMENDED ACTION It is the recommendation of the administration and the Finance, Audit and Facilities Committee that the Board of Regents: 1. Approve entering into a Property Exchange & Development Agreement with Sound Transit to exchange University property for the air rights above the U District Station for future transit oriented development, including temporary construction and tieback easements, a permanent tunnel easement under the Social Work Building, and a condominium declaration; and 2. Delegate to the President or his designee the authority to execute all documents related to this property exchange and development. BACKGROUND Purpose and Benefit Sound Transit is building a light rail station called the U District Station (part of its Northgate Link) across from the UW Tower between NE 43rd St and NE 45th St at Brooklyn Ave NE. The light rail tunnel will go under campus beginning at the UW Station, head north and west toward 15th Avenue NE, go under the University of Washington’s Social Work Building (located on the west side of 15th Avenue NE), then head north to the U District Station on Brooklyn Avenue NE. An agreement is already in place for the light rail tunnel under the main campus (to 15th Ave NE). The U District Station (“Station”) will serve as a “front door” to the upper University of Washington (“UW”) campus and there is particular interest in how it will be developed. Sound Transit policy calls for transit oriented development (“TOD”) above the Station.

  • Sound Transit TOD Quarterly Report
    Quarter 2, 2020 TRANSIT-ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT Quarterly Status Report Cedar Crossing project at the future Roosevelt Station, which began construction in May 2020. Overview RCW 81.112.350 requires Sound Transit to provide quarterly updates on implementation of a regional equitable transit oriented development (TOD) strategy. The TOD program is empowered by the voter‐ approved plan to create diverse, vibrant and mixed‐income communities around transit. To achieve these outcomes, Sound Transit offers its surplus properties—those acquired for building and operating the transit system but no longer provide a transit use to the agency—as development opportunities for affordable housing or other developments benefiting the public. TABLE OF CONTENTS Highlights TOD program development TOD program implementation Transfers of Surplus Property Looking Ahead TOD Quarterly Status Report | Page 1 SOUND TRANSIT’S OFFICE OF LAND USE PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT | TOD Highlights Construction began on the Cedar Crossing project at Roosevelt Station.

  • The Neptune Theatre: a Case Study
    Seattle University ScholarWorks @ SeattleU Seattle Theater Group Arts Ecosystem Research Project 2020 The Neptune Theatre: A Case Study Ana N. Rusness-Petersen Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarworks.seattleu.edu/seattle-theater-group THE NEPTUNE THEATRE 1 Photo courtesy STG Archive and Gallery The Neptune Theatre: A Case Study Ana N. Rusness-Petersen Seattle University Cultural Infrastructure and Facilities March 19, 2019 (updated May, 2020) THE NEPTUNE THEATRE 2 Abstract The Neptune Theatre, formerly known as the U-Neptune Theatre, was one of five neighborhood theaters constructed in the University District during the silent film era (1919 - 1921). This period, the 1920s, was “Seattle’s most active decade” of theater construction (Flom, 2001). Today, the Neptune remains as the last standing survivor of those venues still in operation a hundred years later. Still owned by descendants of the original family and now leased and operated by the Seattle Theatre Group (STG), this venue hosts artists and events ranging from David Crosby concerts to a Welcome to Nightvale live podcast performance; from a Macklemore guest appearance (Matson, 2012) to the annual Nights at the Neptune and Youth Speaks series. It remains one of Seattle’s premiere hot spots for concerts, film screenings, spoken word and dance showcases, and performances by touring musical legends and community youth alike. In our current environment of constrained resources, fiscal scrutiny, monotonous modern construction, and a movement towards historical stewardship and adaptive reuse, it is vital to develop a familiarity with exemplary facilities that embody long-term success by exploring and analyzing their leadership, design, operation, maintenance, and capitalization strategies, which have contributed to their ongoing survival and flourishment.
