Some of the properties that will be razed to make room for construction of SPU dorms.

No valuation of the project has been placed on it yet, but the demolition needed to make room for it is inching closer.
Seattle Pacific University has been granted city approval to build the Irondale Residence Hall, a five-story congregate residence with 150 beds and 70 parking spaces under the structure. Irondale will be located at 3309 Sixth Avenue West, across the street from SPU administration offices, dining hall and where four homes currently sit.
“They’ve [SPU] owned the houses for some time and have been renting them out to students, mainly,” said Larry Allen of consulting company Allen Projects Support Allen said the homes at 604 W. Cremona St., 3305 Sixth Ave. W., 3309 Sixth Ave. W., and 3311 Sixth Ave. W., will be torn down as soon as possible. But even if the demolition were to take place tomorrow, it could be another year before the project “gets off the ground,” Allen said.
The new facility is being designed by Mithun Architects in Seattle.
