12th & Jackson Plaza

Seattle WA | Hewitt

Project developed from concept through jurisdictional entitlements package

Property owners with a deep family history with the site and surrounding area sought to redevelop an existing property in the burgeoning International District.  With a mission that the project should be both economic generator and civic space for the district, we developed a truly mixed used program of residential, commercial, and non-profit uses, woven together by a generous civic hill climb promenade and central plaza.

The Concept and form driver for the project is a ribbon of public space that weaves its way through the site, joining the 4 sides, programmatic uses, and traversing the +5o foot grade change.
