Fran Esmond’s House - 19704 38th Pl S - Post #22

 

Please save the date of December 10th and join us for a warm and cozy end of the year soiree. There will be food and drink and there could be friends you have not talked with for a couple of years - perhaps new friends you have not yet met. 

We are scaling back the cost of admission which this year will be just $25/person or get a $5 discount off each ticket purchased before November 27th! As usual the gala is open only to shore club members but we would love to have new folks join and come celebrate with your neighbors. Get your Santa Caps ready!

Buy your tickets: $20/person in advanced, else $25 each after Nov 26th. 
For those who are not current Shore Club members in 2022, please include $10 for individual yearly membership or $20 for annual household membership.

Groundbreaking Activity in the Hood

Between now and 2024, the Angle Lake Station Area will experience a boon in housing projects which is expected to bring some relief to the region's housing shortage and will result in a significant increase of density brought into the area. Perhaps it will also bring some much needed retail, restaurant and entertainment establishments along with it to support this new urban growth.

Amelia Apartments
Address: 2929 South 200th Street 
Description: Construction of a 7-story apartment building with 108 units and 78 structured parking spaces. The project broke ground on 10/12 and expects to be market ready after an 18-month buildout. 
Additional information about this project can be viewed at this LINK. 

TIME Apartments
Address: 19825 International Blvd
Description: The City recently issued land use approvals and construction permits for TIME Apartments. This project is adjacent to Angle Lake Station. It will replace the existing self-storage facility on the west side of International Boulevard. The development will include a seven-story mixed-use apartment building containing 289 residential units and associated amenity areas, 1,884 square feet of general retail space, 233 residential, and seven retail parking spaces. Construction is expected to start in Spring 2023.

Mercy Housing Apartments 
Address: 2650 S 200th St 
Description: New construction of a residential mixed-use building containing 130 units of permanently affordable housing for families earning less than 30%, 50%, and 60% of the area median income. Commercial office space will be located on 11,000 sq ft of the ground floor. The proposal also includes 103 parking stalls accessed via S 200th St and 26th Ave S; 25 for the office spaces and 78 for residential units.   Open recreation space and amenities will be available throughout the site. This project is in the early stages of review. They hope to get land use approvals early next year.
More info on the project can be found at this LINK. 

Special note of appreciation for Jenn Kester, Planning Manager with the City of SeaTac for helping to provide information on each of these projects. 

Angle Lake Nature Trail Restoration Help Needed

Alison Thomas, a Tyee High School Science Teacher, is coordinating a field trip with Forterra for as many as 40 students to do restoration work at Angle Lake Nature Trail on Oct. 11th from approximately 11 am to 2 pm.

When: October 11th - 11am until 2pm

Where: Angle Lake Nature Trail

Meet near the boat launch

Ms. Thomas is reaching out to the Shore Club to see if our members might be interested in participating in this event. Involvement may include chaperoning the field trip or acting as an extra pair of eyes in helping to ID invasive species, making sure students are removing the correct targeted invasive plants. Or you may consider bringing your own supplies (gloves, shears, steel rake) and participating alongside other volunteers to help maintain a healthy, native environment.

Another idea suggested is for any Shore Club member with knowledge about how the former Hughes Property became part of the SeaTac parks system and of prior restoration efforts having occurred here to take a minute or two to share that history.

 

If you have questions about this event, please email Alison Thomas at alison.thomas@highlineschools.org or to participate, please sign up online at https://seatac.greencitypartnerships.org/event/65/ ( and click on “Join this event”).
