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.

  • Queen Anne Historic Context Statement
    QUEEN ANNE HISTORIC CONTEXT STATEMENT Prepared by Florence K. Lentz and Mimi Sheridan For the Seattle Department of Neighborhoods, Historic Preservation Program and the Queen Anne Historical Society October 2005 The community of Queen Anne is one of Seattle’s oldest residential neighborhoods. Pioneer settler Thomas Mercer first called the forested, water-lapped district Eden Hill. By the mid-1880s, the growing suburb had acquired the name Queen Anne Town in reference to its showy domestic architecture. The character of this thoroughly urban neighborhood today is the result of several key influences, both physical and human. Natural features have both encouraged and restrained the development of Queen Anne over time. Waterways at the base of the hill virtually assured adjacent industrial growth from an early date. At the same time, steep topography limited the spread of large-scale commercial and industrial land uses on the hill itself. Instead, the hill became attractive as an early residential suburb because of its spectacular territorial and water views and its relative accessibility to the city. Queen Anne Hill was linked to Seattle by public transit in the late 1880s. Thereafter, streetcar lines fostered rapid platting, intensive residential construction, and the eventual emergence of multifamily housing – all within a brief forty-year period of time. The close-in location and unsurpassed views continue to stabilize the high value of real estate on the hill. Queen Anne’s character has been shaped as much by its human resources as by its physical features. The fact that progressive, well-educated families made the hill their home from the outset has left a lasting legacy.
