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.

TOD integrates housing, transit, medium- to high-density office and retail, and open space and streetscape, with less space dedicated to cars. Source: U.S. Government Accountability Office, Publication GAO 15-70 “Public Transportation, Multiple Factors Influence Extent of Transit-Oriented Development” Nov 2014 Source: U.S. Government Accountability Office, Publication GAO 15-70 “Public Transportation, Multiple Factors Influence Extent of Transit-Oriented Development” Nov 2014 Context 4 TOD The idea of TOD came about 30+ years ago, originally as a design strategy for surburban growth to balance and cluster housing, jobs, shopping and recreation within ¼ mile of mass transit. “The Pedestrian Pocket Book” A New Suburban Design Strategy, ” Calthorpe, Kelbaugh (Ed)., Princeton University Press 1989. TOD aligns perfectly with local government goals for urban growth densification, one of the key tenets of the Growth Management Act (RCW 36.070A.020), since TOD mixes commercial and residential real estate within walking distance of transit and promotes open space and a sense of community.
