Two Long-Dormant Sites at Mount Baker Station Advance Toward Redevelopment

Sound Transit’s board approved redevelopment plans Thursday for two long-dormant parcels near Mount Baker Station in Seattle. The smaller northern site will be transferred to Seattle’s Office of Housing for four to eight affordable townhomes, while the larger 100,000-square-foot southern site will be sold for market-rate mixed-use development. These projects complement the nearby UW Laundry site, which will add 431 affordable units and an early learning center starting construction this fall.
