This Hope VI project consists of 219 units of rental public housing and 188 units of ownership housing, some with partial subsidies so that ownership can span a range of affordability…The jury wished for a more detailed explanation of pricing….The development offers a beautifully articulated craftsman streetscape with lovely porches that reflect Seattle's vernacular…Good mixed use in this facility, including retail on the ground floor and a second-floor medical clinic…Street integration is quite rhythmic and restrained…The units are persuasive and there is good public space…Plans for a rail connection will mitigate the current need to drive to and from the site.
