Raze-Or-Retrofit: Evaluation of Seattle's Commercial Building Stock for Energy Efficiency
Raze-or-Retrofi t: Evaluation of Seattle’s Commercial Building Stock for Energy Effi ciency Sean Shannon Engle A thesis submitted in partial fulfi llment of the requirements for the degree of: Master of Architecture University of Washington 2012 Joel Loveland, Chair Kathryn Merlino Program Authorized to Off er Degree: Department of Architecture University of Washington Abstract Raze-or-Retrofi t: Evaluation of Seattle’s Commercial Building Stock for Energy Effi ciency Sean Shannon Engle Chair of Supervisory Committee: Professor Joel Loveland Department of Architecture Both my Architecture (M.Arch) and Planning (MUP) theses work around the rubric of the Archi- tecture 2030 Challenge and the eff orts of the Seattle 2030 District to meet it (2030DC - see http:// www.2030district.org/seattle/ ). In taking up this challenge, the City of Seattle and the 2030DC have teamed up with major property owners, property managers, developers, architects and the Integrat- ed Design Lab at UW to target and benchmark existing opportunities in Seattle’s commercial building stock for potential deep retrofi ts and redesign. The goal of both theses is to provide the 2030DC with tools and intelligence that will assist in targeting its program and outreach eff orts. Both the M.Arch and MUP theses examine the behavior of commercial property owners and their pro- pensity to either retrofi t their buildings for energy effi ciency or raze them in favor of redevelopment. To determine this, in the M.Arch thesis I developed a scoring system that utilizes various algorithms to process publicly available data combined with other data developed locally to derive a score that permits an apples-to-apples comparison of that propensity. -

Wilson, M.A., and Chanda Schneider (Environmental Science Associates) With contributions from Natalie Perrin, M.S. (Historical Research Associates, Inc.) 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. -

Report on Designation Lpb 11/12
REPORT ON DESIGNATION LPB 11/12 Name and Address of Property: Fashioncraft Building/Recovery Cafe 2022 Boren Avenue Legal Description: Lots 3 and 4 lying West of Fairview Avenue, Block 53 of the Plat of the Second Addition to the Town of Seattle Laid Off by the Heirs of Sarah A. Bell, according to the Plat thereof recorded in Volume 1 of Plats, Page 121, in King County, Washington. At the public meeting held on January 4, 2012 the City of Seattle's Landmarks Preservation Board voted to approve designation of the Fashioncraft Building/Recovery Café at 2022 Boren Avenue as a Seattle Landmark based upon satisfaction of the following standards for designation of SMC 25.12.350: C. It is associated in a significant way with a significant aspect of the cultural, political, or economic heritage of the community, City, state, or nation; and D. It embodies the distinctive visible characteristics of an architectural style, period, or of a method of construction; and F. Because of its prominence of spatial location, contrasts of siting, age, or scale, it is an easily identifiable visual feature of its neighborhood or the City and contributes to the distinctive quality or identity of such neighborhood or the City. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION Overall Aspect The Fashioncraft Building at 2022 Boren Avenue is sited on the triangular lot, bounded by Denny Way, Fairview Avenue and Boren Avenue. The building, whose plan is basically a chamfered right triangle, is one story in height, but has a basement. The exterior is primarily clad in light brown brick with cast stone ornament, which echoes Churriguresque decoration or the Spanish Eclectic work of American architects, such as Bertram Goodhue. -

Note this excerpt, seldom surpassed in beauty of thought and diction, from his address to Governor Stevens: Why should I mourn at the untimely fate of my people? Tribe follows tribe, and nation follows nation, like the waves of the sea. It is the order of nature and regret is useless. Your time of decay may be distant — but it will surely come, for even the White Man whose God walked and talked with him as friend with friend cannot be exempt from the common destiny. We may be brothers after all. Let the White Man be just and deal kindly with my people, for the dead are not powerless. Dead — I say? There is no death. Only a change of worlds.
