Project Description:

Council Land Use Action to create a new major institution master plan for Seattle Children's Hospital. The plan proposes new height limits and expansion of institutional boundaries, involving a rezone. It also involves modification of development standards, increases in developable gross floor area, increases in onsite parking spaces, displacement of 136 units of multifamily condominium housing, and modifications to the transportation management plan. Among the studied alternatives, the plan identifies expansion to the west to include Laurelon Terrace in the major institution overlay, as well as the Hartmann Building at 4561 Sand Point Way NE (project number 3007696). The City of Seattle Department of Planning and Development has prepared the Final Environmental Impact Statement.
