Urban Design Framework Draft to be Presented to the SLU Public


The journey to produce an Urban Design Framework (UDF) for the SLU neighborhood logged an important milestone in late August when the last of six charettes was held. If you’re new to the process here is what these terms mean: The UDF will establish a shared design vision and implementation strategy for the future of SLU, building on the SLU Neighborhood Plan that was adopted in 2007. A charette is a term for a collaborative design activity. The charettes have given community organizations, residents, businesses, property owners and design professionals a chance to talk about a vision for South Lake Union’s future. “The charettes generate issues and recommendations that help to shape the Design Framework,” explained Marshall Foster, Special Projects Manager for the City of Seattle.

SLUFAN Community Council Press Release Regarding South Lake Union EIS Alternatives


The City of Seattle Department of Planning and Development held an open house September 16, 2008 to present a set of Urban Form Alternatives to be studied in an Environmental Impact Statement. The alternatives represent a range of height, density and building form factors to be evaluated through the EIS study. The EIS study will lead to South Lake Union zoning recommendations that will be presented to the Mayor and City Council for consideration in 2009.

The four Urban Form Alternatives and other presentation material presented by the City can be read here. Contact information for questions is listed on the website.

SLUFAN Recommends a Range of Alternatives for EIS


The South Lake Union Friends and Neighbors Community Council at its Board meeting on June 3, 2008, voted unanimously to forward a range of three alternatives for increased height and density of the South Lake Union neighborhood to Mayor Greg Nickels and to the City’s Department of Planning and Development for consideration. These options follow the City’s designation of the neighborhood as an Urban Center to accept greater density as the city grows. Later this year the Department of Planning and Development will select alternatives to be studied in the South Lake Union Urban Form Environmental Impact Study (EIS). The City will also consider a no-action alternative, as is the case with all Environmental Impact Statements.
