The large, vacant house and a single-story, empty retail building that had been occupying the southwest corner of the former Denny's property were torn down on the morning of Sept. 1.
The site on the corner of Market Street and 15th Avenue Northwest will soon become the Market Street Landing development.
A longtime Denny's was torn down a little more than a year ago amidst many strong feelings in the neighborhood.
The city approved the application to allow the construction of Market Street Landing in August.
The development will be an eight-story structure with 261 residential units above 32,307 square feet of retail space.
A Bartell Drugs is slated to be the anchor tenant of the retail space.
The Market Street Landing project has been in permitting stages for the past two years. It went before a design review board four times before being approved.
