A project on top of Queen Anne that was first planned as a mix of retail and medical offices will now officially become apartments instead. The site at 1919 Queen Anne Ave across the street from Metropolitan Market has just changed its land use application. The four story building will now include 57 apartments over 8100 square feet of retail space. There will also be underground parking for 68 cars.
The property owned by Emerald Bay Equity is part of a chunk of land at the top of Queen Anne that has been in limbo for several years. In fact, we told you about Emerald Bay’s plan to sell some of the property earlier this past spring. Joe Geivett with Emerald Bay tells us he’ll be talking with community groups in the next few weeks about the new plan for the site at 1919 Queen Anne Ave. The public can submit comments to the city until August 29.
