Pinehurst resident, former Seattle City Councilmember and potential candidate for Seattle Mayor, Peter Steinbrueck calls this photo: “the new tenements.” He posted this photo to Facebook (can you tell the location?) and commented on the need for new rules guiding development in Seattle’s L zones. In his Facebook posting, he expressed his concern regarding the “urban blight caused by a proliferation of auto court “six pack” townhouses throughout Seattle neighborhoods” and the need for better design.
The Seattle City Council Planning Land Use and Neighborhoods Committee heard testimony today regarding the proposed Multifamily Code Update. You can view the meeting on The Seattle Channel here.
