Tukwila Village Development Associates, LLC was selected by the City of Tukwila to develop 5.66 acres of City-owned land on Tukwila International Boulevard. The Tukwila City Council approved The Tukwila Village Vision on 09-17-07: Tukwila Village will be a welcoming place where all residents can gather and connect with each other. This mixed-use development will draw upon Tukwila’s strengths and include a library, a neighborhood police resource center, retail, restaurants, public meeting space, and an outdoor plaza. The Village may also include office, live/work and residential space. This active, vibrant place will set high standards for quality and foster additional neighborhood revitalization and civic pride.
Johnson Braund, Inc. has worked very closely with the entire project team, City staff and the public to ensure that the vision set forth has been met. The resulting project is a two-phase development totaling 402 units of affordable and mixed-income housing for seniors in (4) mixed-use buildings. Approximately 34,000 sf of commercial, retail & office space, including a community commons, cafe and public plaza are provided. Thoughtful site planning, indoor and outdoor gathering area and public art promotes connectivity and community for Tukwila Village residents as well as the surrounding neighborhood.
