Highly Visible Eight-Story Development Coming To Downtown

Nelson Legacy Group is the owner and developer of this project.  Mr. Nelson owns *20 additional acres in Redmond which he plans to develop.

This building is highly visible. Eight stories.  Boundaries:  Adjacent to the Downtown Park,  Chevron gas station and Jimmy Johns to the west, Redmond Way to the South. On the east Aqua-Quick, Grand Peking Restaurant, and Dark Horse Brew will be demolished.  1.4 acres. 80052 -161 Av. NE.  

Eight stories, 244 mixed use multi-family units, 4316 s.f. commercial, 221 parking spaces (21 spaces are free for commercial/retail use within the building. Minimum 25 affordable units (meets code.)

A one story bonus for eight stories was granted for provisions of 20 percent on-site usable open space in the form of plazas, arcades with water features that are accessible to the public during extended business hours. The amenities are on the project site or within the zone in which the building is located. The applicant will provide 22,700 sf of open space whereas 12,180 sf is the minimum required in-order to achieve the additional building height to eight stories.

* I find this hard to believe.

  1. It's hard to keep up with all the changes. I took some photos of that area a couple years ago. I try to get photos prior to demolition, during demolition and during new construction. Thanks for helping to keep me informed. Cheryl Strong Magnuson
