The Fremont Green T.O.D. project we designed is 5-stories and 2 buildings for a narrow urban infill site in the middle of Seattle’s Fremont. There are 14-units here ranging in size from hotel-style SEDU’s to 1 and 2BR apartments. The project’s Doug Fir cladding was custom-milled from the salvage and deconstruction of the previous building on site which had burned in a fire.
The corners of these new buildings face skyline and water views and express contrasting balconies to dissolve their edges and open outwards in both directions. A butterfly mural by a local graffiti artist wraps the site’s courtyard and shoring walls and these buildings are also 4-star Built Green.
