Design Review Recommendation meeting Sept. 18 for development to replace Greenwood explosion site

The Design Review Recommendation meeting for the development that will take over the Greenwood explosion site at 8403 Greenwood Ave. N. is set for Sept. 18 (the originally scheduled Aug. 21 meeting was canceled).

The meeting will be at 8 p.m. Monday, Sept. 18, at the Ballard Community Center, 6020 28th Ave. NW, in the Sunset/Captain Ballard Room.

The developer is proposing a six-story, 70-unit apartment building with retail at street level, and parking for 70 vehicles below grade. Flint Creek Cattle Co.’s building at the north end of that block will remain, but the south end building where Better Hearing, Kouzina and Insurrection Apparel were located, will be demolished.

An updated design proposal is not yet available. The original proposal from last January is available here.

Update Sept. 12: Here’s the updated design proposal.
