An early design review meeting is set for a proposed 50 unit 7 story mixed use apartment building to be constructed at 4505 42nd Ave. S.W. on Oregon Street. The meeting is at the West Seattle Senior Center, Jan. 30, 6:30 p.m.

The Senior Center is located at 4217 S.W. Oregon Street, which happens to be just adjacent to the proposed building site.

The site is owned by West Seattle's Leon Capelouto, owner/developer of Capco Plaza on Alaska Street. NK Architects are the designers. The proposal includes two floors with 10,000 sq, ft. of retail/office space and one level of underground parking for 16 vehicles. The site is just north of the West Seattle Junction Association‘s free-parking lot.

The Director of the Department of Planning and Development will accept written comments to assist in the preparation of the early design guidance through January 23, 2014. You are invited to offer comments regarding important site planning and design issues, which you believe, should be addressed in the design for this project.
