The Renton Nickel Improvement Project is a highway expansion project that will improve mobility and safety through Tukwila and Renton. On I-405, this project begins just east of the I-5/I-405 interchange in Tukwila and extends north past the Cedar River to the SR 169 (Maple Valley Highway) interchange. The project will build an additional lane both northbound and southbound between I-5 and SR 169. On SR 167, the project will extend the southbound high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane north to I-405 and add a southbound auxiliary lane from I-405 to the SW 41st Street off-ramp. These limits comprise the study area for the project. Prior to planning this specific project, WSDOT created the I-405 Corridor Program. This program provides a comprehensive strategy to reduce congestion and improve mobility throughout the I-405 corridor. The corridor begins at the I-5 interchange in the city of Tukwila and extends northward 30 miles to the I-5 interchange in the city of Lynnwood. The program’s purpose is to provide an efficient, integrated, and multimodal system of transportation solutions. Using the I-405 Corridor Program’s Selected Alternative as the Master Plan to improve I-405, WSDOT developed relatively low cost, congestion relief roadway improvements as an interim step in achieving the Master Plan. As part of this effort, WSDOT began to define the Renton Nickel Improvement Project. The Renton Nickel Improvement Project was developed as part of a first step in providing a focused strategy to improve I-405 between I-5 in Tukwila and SR 169 in Renton and SR 167 southbound from I-405 to SW 41st Street, see Exhibit 1. This discipline report analyzes two project alternatives: the No Build Alternative and the Build Alternative. Exhibit 1.

The No Build Alternative assumes that only routine activities such as road maintenance, repair, and safety improvements would take place over the next 20 years. This alternative does not include improvements to increase roadway capacity or reduce congestion. For these reasons, it does not satisfy the project’s purpose—improve I-405 between I-5 in Tukwila and SR 169 in Renton and SR 167 southbound from I-405 to SW 41st Street. The No Build Alternative has been evaluated in this discipline report to establish a baseline for comparing the effects associated with the Build Alternative. What is the Build Alternative? The new lanes that will be built under this project are: „ An I-405 northbound general-purpose (GP) lane from I-5 to the SR 167 off-ramp. „ An I-405 northbound auxiliary lane from the SR 167 to I-405 on-ramp to the SR 169 off-ramp. „ An I-405 southbound auxiliary lane from the SR 169 to I-405 on-ramp to the SR 167 off-ramp. „ An I-405 southbound GP lane from the SR 167 to I-405 on-ramp to the I-5 off-ramp. „ A SR 167 southbound auxiliary lane from I-405 to the SW 41st Street off-ramp. Also, the existing inside HOV lane will be extended north to I-405 from its present starting point in the vicinity of SW 21st Street. See Exhibits 2 through 9 show the project features. In addition to adding lanes to I-405 and SR 167, this project will provide the following improvements. Improve Interchanges Minor modifications will be made to the ramps at the SR 167 interchange: „ The one-lane ramp from northbound I-405 to SR 167 will be widened to a 2-lane off connection, which provides a dedicated lane to southbound SR 167 and a dedicated lane to northbound Rainer Avenue. See Exhibit 5. „ Traffic from two consecutive single-lane on- ramps from southbound I-405 to SR 167 will be separated by a concrete barrier. This will provide a smoother transition to the mainline and reduce congestion on the on-ramps. What is an auxiliary lane? An auxiliary lane is a lane added between interchanges—from one on-ramp to the next off-ramp. It is dedicated to traffic entering and leaving the freeway and provides motorists with more time and extra room to accelerate or decelerate and merge when getting on and off the freeway. 89:P 89:T Existing On-ramp On-ramp with proposed auxiliary lane INTRODUCTION Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report 3 T u k w i l a P a r k w a y I-405 Southern Project Limit at I-5 Gilliam Creek Cottage Creek Westfield Shoppingtown MallSouthcenter ParkwaySouthcenter Blvd 65th Ave STUKWILA RENTON!"`$ %&e( Sec. 1 Sec. 2 Sec. 3 Sec. 4 Sec. 5 Sec. 6 Sec. 7 Aæ Aç Sec. 8 Aí I-405 Northboundbound Improvements: A general-purpose lane will be added by restriping the existing pavement and adding pavement up to 15 feet to the outside at some locations.

Project Overview Section 8 INTRODUCTION Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report 11 Improve Benson Road The Benson Road overpass will be replaced and realigned to accommodate the southbound auxiliary lane on I-405 as well as future improvements to I-405 as shown on Exhibit 8. Improvements on Benson Road include a 6-foot sidewalk on the west side and 5-foot bike lanes on both sides. Widen and replace bridges Several bridges within the study area will be widened or replaced based on present location, cost, and existing soil conditions. To construct the new lanes, the project will: „ Widen Talbot Road Bridge on both the northbound and the southbound sides. See Exhibit 8. „ Replace Springbrook Creek Side Channel Bridge and Oakesdale Avenue Bridge with new southbound and northbound structures and remove the Springbrook Creek box culvert. See Exhibit 4. „ Replace the rail on the I-405 bridges over SR 181 and the Union Pacific and Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroads. The project will not affect the I-405 bridges over the Green River, Lind Avenue, or the Cedar River. The project will also not affect the Cedar Avenue or Renton Avenue overpasses. The roadway will be restriped in these areas to accommodate the new lanes. Use retaining walls Widening I-405 and SR 167 will require retaining walls to minimize the construction footprint and right-of-way acquisition. Retaining walls will also help avoid and minimize effects to wetlands and other sensitive areas. Improve culverts WSDOT anticipates that construction will affect some existing stormwater cross culverts and one stream culvert. Associated culvert improvements include extending the existing structures due to widening the roadway and stabilizing culvert ends with rock or retaining walls. The I-405 Team will conduct a hydraulic analysis of the culverts to ensure that the modifications will have no effect on the base flood elevations. See the Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Discipline Report for detailed discussion on fish passage. Why rebuild Benson Road on a new alignment over I-405? By building the new overpass to the west on a new alignment, the new structure can be constructed while the existing structure remains open to traffic. Traffic can then be shifted onto the new structure, while the old overpass is demolished. What does a “rail” replacement involve? Typically, a bridge rail replacement project consists of making minor adjustments to the width of the bridge deck and replacing the guard rail or barrier. This type of project does not include adding new bridge columns or footings. INTRODUCTION Renton Nickel Improvement Project 12 Cultural Resources Discipline Report Build a noise wall One noise wall will be built on the northbound side of the freeway as shown on Exhibits 5 and 8. The wall will begin at the intersection of South 14th Street and South 15th Street and follow South 14th Street east to Talbot Road. This wall will be approximately 2,150 feet long and 18 feet tall. How will stormwater from the project be managed? Stormwater from the project will be managed for both quality and peak flows using currently accepted best management practices (BMPs). The I-405 Team has designed the stormwater management facilities to comply with the following guidelines and procedures: „ WSDOT Highway Runoff Manual M 31-16 „ WSDOT Hydraulics Manual M 23-03 Stormwater treatment facilities The project will add new impervious surface within the study area, most of which will be within the Springbrook Creek basin. This project will treat runoff for an area equal to 100 percent of these new surfaces. The project will use BMPs that the HRM lists as enhanced treatment facilities. The I-405 Team has proposed that stormwater be treated using a combination of these facilities. In most of the study area, ecology embankments will be used to capture runoff from the edge of the pavement and provide water quality treatment. Ecology embankments also serve to convey treated runoff to receiving waters or to flow control facilities as required. The project also includes a combined stormwater quality wetland and detention facility that addresses water quality and flow control in one facility. Exhibits 2 through 9 show the location of stormwater facilities that will be built for this project. Ecology Embankment Cross-Section What are the guidelines for stormwater management facilities? Water quality treatment will be provided for an area equal to the new impervious surfaces created on the project. Impervious surfaces, such as pavement, are those that do not allow water to penetrate into the ground. Stormwater from new impervious surfaces or an equal area will be controlled in detention facilities. This process allows water to be held (detained) and thus released at rates that are equal to existing conditions. INTRODUCTION Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report 13 Drainage Collection and Conveyance Some changes to existing drainage will be necessary to provide flow control and water quality treatment to address the new impervious area added by the project. However, existing storm drainage systems will be kept to the greatest extent possible and existing flow patterns will be maintained. Where roadway widening affects drainage ditches that convey water from adjacent private properties, the project design will assure that existing conveyance capacities are maintained. What environmental and utilities issues influenced the project design and what was done to avoid and minimize project effects? Throughout the development of the Renton Nickel Improvement Project design, environmental elements were reviewed and design features were modified to avoid or minimize negative effects to the environment. Influence on the project design came from: „ Soil Conditions: the soils in the project area are highly prone to accentuate earthquake shaking, which influences how bridges can be widened or replaced. „ Noise: highway noise in the project area already exceeds acceptable levels, which means that including noise walls as part of the project had to be considered. „ Wetland Locations: many wetlands are located along the edges of the highway, which influence whether the widened sections will use retaining walls or fill slopes. „ Historical Sites: some historic sites exist within the study area, so the project design was coordinated to avoid these properties. Because the I-405 Team planned for these environmental considerations, several design features have the benefit of avoiding or minimizing potential effects due to the project. These design features are described from south to north below. I-405, I-5 to SR 167 WSDOT will construct a retaining wall from west of the 68th Avenue structure over I-405 at Tukwila Parkway What are detention facilities? These facilities control stormwater runoff so that it can be released at a controlled rate. Two types are commonly used: „ Ponds. „ Vaults. Similar to a pond, but with a hard-sided construction. These concrete structures function like a pond but also provide detention storage. INTRODUCTION Renton Nickel Improvement Project 14 Cultural Resources Discipline Report The proposed design modifications allow the additional lanes to be added over the Green River by restriping instead of bridge widening. This avoids effects on the river, stream habitat, floodplain, and Interurban Trail. to the Green River. This wall avoids the need to construct a fill slope that would extend into Gilliam Creek. See Exhibit 2. WSDOT will provide a narrower outside shoulder on northbound I-405 at the Green River Bridge. The shoulder will vary from 10 to just over 3 feet at the west abutment of the existing bridge. Narrowing the shoulder avoids modifications to the existing bridge. As a result, the design also avoids effects to the river, the 100-year floodplain, the ordinary high water level, and adjacent riparian zones. At the SR 181 interchange, the bridge and ramp will be restriped to provide the new general-purpose lane and ramp improvements. This approach minimizes the need to widen the existing SR 181 Bridge, reconstruct the SR 181 interchange, or modify the Southcenter Boulevard crossing of the Green River. This in turn avoids relocating or diverting the Interurban Trail, which goes under the bridge. See Exhibit 3. Near the Westfield Shoppingtown Mall, a large Seattle Public Utilities water transmission line parallels I-405. WSDOT will line this pipe so that is can support the loads from the new roadway embankment. This approach allows the line to stay in its present location. WSDOT will remove the existing I-405 bridges over the Springbrook Creek side channel and Oakesdale Avenue and replace them with a single northbound and a single southbound bridge. This approach will allow for the removal of the Springbrook Creek box culvert. Construction of the new bridges will be phased with the southbound bridge built slightly to the north of the existing roadway. This phasing minimizes the need to construct temporary roadway to maintain traffic operations. WSDOT also evaluated the location of the new bridge piers and selected locations that will minimize the effect on the existing stream, stream buffer, and trail that crosses under the bridge. WSDOT will construct a narrower exit gore from I-405 to the northbound ramp at the SR 167 interchange as shown in Exhibit 5. By building a narrower exit gore, the project can be constructed within the existing right- of-way. This has the benefit of avoiding right-of-way acquisition, avoiding effects to the wetland outside the right-of-way, and avoiding effects to the existing Lind Avenue Bridge. What is an exit gore? An exit gore is a roadway feature that separates an exiting lane from the main lanes. An exit gore can be defined either by paint stripes, raised buttons, physical barriers, or a combination of these. INTRODUCTION Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report 15 Retaining walls will help to avoid and minimize effects on the Panther Creek wetlands along SR 167 SR 167, southbound from I-405 to SW 41st Street WSDOT will build a retaining wall along a large portion of the west edge of SR 167 southbound instead of an earth fill slope. See Exhibits 6 and 7. The retaining wall minimizes effects on three wetlands. The retaining wall has the added benefit of minimizing right-of-way needs and reduces the effect on existing utility crossings, in particular, the City of Seattle’s 60- inch water line and Olympic Petroleum’s two high pressure pipelines, which all cross under SR 167. I-405, SR 167 to SR 169 WSDOT will add a lane by restriping I-405 northbound next to the Talbot Hill retaining wall immediately east of the SR 167 interchange. Restriping instead of widening avoids the need to reconstruct the existing Talbot Hill retaining wall and avoids effects on properties south of I-405 in this area. Between Talbot Road and the “S-Curves”, northbound I-405 will be widened to achieve standard lane and shoulder widths. Most of this length will be supported by retaining walls to minimize effects to Thunder Hills Creek, adjacent properties, and the existing cut slope south of I-405. To support the fill required to widen the roadway on the north side of I-405 next to the outfall for the original Rolling Hills Creek culvert, the design uses a retaining wall. By using the retaining wall, the project improvements at this location can be constructed without affecting the existing culvert. WSDOT will use a non-standard design for the I-405 to SR 167 exit ramp. The changes from the design standards include not providing a recovery lane, narrowing the distance between the through lane and ramp, and providing narrower shoulders. While these changes deviate from WSDOT design standards they are an improvement over existing conditions. These features will avoid effects to the existing Rolling Hills Creek/Thunder Hills Creek channel located between I-405 and the Renton Cinema complex as shown in Exhibit 5. Using retaining walls along the west side of Benson Road avoids effects to Rolling Hills Creek and the wetlands east of Talbot Road. WSDOT will use retaining walls to support widening southbound I-405 south of the Cedar Avenue overpass. Using retaining walls versus a fill slope, avoids encroaching on Cedar Avenue and Main Avenue in Renton. What is a recovery lane? A recovery lane is a paved area adjacent to an off-ramp. This area gives drivers, who find themselves exiting the freeway unintentionally, room to maneuver back onto the freeway. INTRODUCTION Renton Nickel Improvement Project 16 Cultural Resources Discipline Report WSDOT also plans to replace the existing Benson Road overpass on a new alignment. The new bridge will be located slightly to the west of the existing bridge. This will allow traffic to continue to use the existing overpass until the new one is completed. This will minimize disruption for local traffic and to emergency response vehicles. Where northbound and southbound I-405 passes under the Renton Avenue and Cedar Avenue overpasses, WSDOT will add lanes by restriping. This design avoids replacing the two overpasses; however, the available area does not allow the standard shoulder and lane widths. WSDOT shifted a proposed stormwater facility to avoid effects to the existing Renton Coal Mine Hoist Foundation site south of Benson Road. This site is on the Washington Historic Register. What is planned for wetland and stream mitigation? WSDOT will compensate for unavoidable effects to wetlands with credits from the Springbrook Creek Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Bank. Mitigation is needed for 1.66 acres of wetlands. The Springbrook Creek Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Bank is being developed as a joint effort between WSDOT and the City of Renton. This ‘bank’ will construct a new high quality wetland complex that will serve to replace other wetlands that are filled in by projects such as the Renton Nickel Improvement Project. The location of the bank is shown to the left. In addition to wetland mitigation, the site will also provide flood storage mitigation. The Springbrook Creek Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Bank will be one of the first urban mitigation banks to be certified in Washington. To mitigate project effects on streams, WSDOT will remove the existing Springbrook Creek box culvert. With the new I-405 southbound and northbound bridges that will span both Springbrook Creek and Oakesdale Avenue, the box culvert is no longer needed. After the new bridges are in place, the box culvert will be removed and the streambed in that area will be restored. This will improve fish habitat within Springbrook Creek. Any additional stream mitigation required to offset project effects will be accommodated within the project vicinity.

The Build Alternative will benefit the area by reducing congestion at chokepoints, reducing the duration of congestion during peak commuter travel hours, and improving freight movement. This section of I-405, from the I-5 interchange to SR 169, is congested due to large traffic volumes and merging and diverging traffic. The new lanes will help relieve congestion by adding roadway capacity. This in turn will improve safety by providing drivers with more time and extra room to accelerate or decelerate and move into and out of the stream of traffic when getting on and off the freeway. This provides a smoother transition for motorists as they get on and off I-405 in Tukwila and Renton and helps decrease rear-end and sideswipe collisions. The project reduces congestion approaching the SR 167 interchange, and it complements the completed southbound I-405 to southbound SR 167 flyover ramp. This project will construct one noise wall along northbound I-405 from the intersection of South 14th Street and South 15th Street east to Talbot Road. This wall will benefit residents in that area by lowering the overall noise levels. Another benefit of this project is that it continues the application of the Context Sensitive Solutions (CSS) design choices made by the communities within the I-405 corridor. The Benson Road realignment will reflect the most comprehensive application of these design choices as explained further in the next section. How will the project incorporate community design preferences? The Renton Nickel Improvement Project is being planned, developed, and designed according to CSS guidelines. These guidelines establish the community design preferences used to design the project features. Working within the framework for the overall I-405 corridor, the Urban Design Guidelines will be adapted to incorporate the communities’ design preferences. These preferences will be included in the contract documents prepared for the Renton Nickel Improvement Project. The selected I-405 theme of “Culture, Nature, and Progress,” with nature being the dominant theme, will be carried into corridor-wide and local I-405 designs. The new Benson Road overpass is the main project feature that will receive CSS treatment. The new southbound and northbound bridges over Springbrook This rendering shows the new Benson Road overpass with the CSS Guidelines applied INTRODUCTION Renton Nickel Improvement Project 18 Cultural Resources Discipline Report Creek and Oakesdale Avenue will also receive CSS treatments. The rest of the project elements will be designed to match in color and vegetation type only, as many of these elements will be affected by construction of future Master Plan projects. During future Master Plan phases for the overall I-405 corridor, the approved CSS guidelines will be applied throughout. How will the project be constructed? Construction of the entire Renton Nickel Improvement Project is expected to take two years, beginning in early 2008 and being completed in late 2010. However, construction activity will not be constant for the entire study area throughout this time, and in some locations, the work will take substantially less time than two years. Construction will pose some minor inconveniences because of localized travel delays due to temporary lane closures and narrowed lanes and shoulders. At-grade construction At-grade construction, which occurs on the same elevation as the existing lanes, will be staged to minimize traffic delays and detours. Typically, lanes are shifted toward the median. WSDOT then places a concrete barrier to close off the shoulder. Staging allows construction to occur safely without closing lanes for the duration of construction. Access to construction areas will occur from the roadway side to minimize property effects. Bridge construction Construction of the I-405 bridges will occur in multiple stages to minimize traffic delays and detours. The following describes typical staging for bridge construction. As the first stage, traffic is shifted toward the I-405 median and the existing lanes and shoulders are narrowed slightly to allow widening of the existing structure or construction of the new bridge depending on the design. In the next stage, traffic is shifted onto the new bridge area. If the bridge is being replaced rather than simply widened, the old structure is demolished after traffic is shifted to the new bridge. The new Benson Road overpass will also be staged. The new structure will be built to the west, while the existing overpass remains in service. After traffic has been shifted onto the new overpass, the existing structure will be demolished. At-grade construction for this project will likely be staged similar what is shown above. Here, the southbound lanes of I-5 were shifted toward the median and a concrete barrier closed off the shoulder to provide crews a safe work area. INTRODUCTION Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report 19 Staging areas Construction staging areas along I-405 and SR 167 will be within the WSDOT right-of-way. Potential staging areas have been identified as shown on Exhibits 2 through 9. Traffic control Detour agreements with the local agencies will be obtained after WSDOT awards the contract. A traffic control plan will be approved by WSDOT prior to starting construction. The plan’s primary objectives will be to provide a safe facility, to streamline the construction schedule, and to minimize reductions to existing traffic capacity. To lessen effects on traffic, the duration of activities will be minimized and reductions in capacity will be limited and will be targeted to a period when they will have the least effect. Why do we consider cultural resources as we plan this project? Cultural resources refer to places, things, and human institutions that provide information about people from the past, their experiences, and their cultural identities. Cultural resources can include archaeological sites, cultural landscapes, spiritual places, people, documents, districts, sites, buildings, objects and structures. Cultural resources can indicate or provide evidence of historical events and trends. They provide tangible evidence of people's lives and significant accomplishments, and reflect significant, distinctive and vernacular architectural, landscape, and engineering designs. Cultural resources can also contain important information for future academic research. Cultural resources can convey important aspects of our history to present and future generations. Several interrelated federal, state, and local laws and regulations require, and provide guidance for, consideration of how development projects might negatively or “adversely affect” cultural resources. The Renton Nickel I-405 Team used the following federal, state, and local regulations to determine whether the project would affect cultural resources. Federal regulation The National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) of 1966, as amended, essentially linked all previous What types of cultural resources are King County Landmarks, State Heritage Register resources or National Register of Historic Places? While different processes determine the significance of a resource at the county, state, or national level, King County, Washington State and the federal government have similar criteria for determining the significance of a cultural resource. In general, the resource must: „ be a building, site, structure, object, or district and „ be at least 40 years of age (50 for the National Register) and „ meet 1 of 4 criteria including: association with locally, regionally, or nationally important events or broad patterns of history or association with locally, regionally, or nationally important people or association with locally, regionally, or nationally important architects or architectural styles or contain important research potential. and „ possess integrity of location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. INTRODUCTION Renton Nickel Improvement Project 20 Cultural Resources Discipline Report historic preservation legislation and authorized the National Park Service (NPS) to expand and maintain a National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), including properties of local, state, and national historical, archaeological, cultural, and architectural significance. The NHPA also established the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) to advise the President and Congress and to revise federal and federally assisted programs. Section 106 of the NHPA requires federal agencies to take into account how their undertaking will affect historic properties and to allow the ACHP, the appropriate State Historic Preservation Office, and all interested parties an opportunity to comment before the undertaking occurs. 36 CFR 800 provides specific guidance for following the Section 106 process. The Section 106 process encourages close cooperation with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), which also requires federal agencies to consider the effect of a project on sensitive environmental resources including cultural resources. Section 4(f) of the Department of Transportation Act of 1966 and its implementing regulations apply to projects requiring approval by an agency of the Department of Transportation, including the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). This regulation requires projects to consider prudent and feasible alternatives to “use” of a historic property. Use is broadly interpreted as an adverse effect, although some adverse effects do not constitute use. State regulation Washington’s State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) requires environmental compliance at the state level and closely resembles NEPA. It requires that properties listed in or eligible for the Washington Heritage Register (WHR) be taken into account when state agency-enabled undertakings affect properties of historic, archaeological, scientific, or cultural importance (WAC 197-11-960). The WHR is the state equivalent of the NRHP and sets forth similar criteria in the evaluation of cultural resources. The WHR, which is administered by the Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (DAHP) identifies and documents significant historic and prehistoric resources at the state level. Any building or site listed in the NRHP is automatically listed on the WHR, and resources listed on the WHR should be What is the Section 106 process? The Section 106 process is the process that requires federal agencies to take into account how their undertaking will affect historic properties. 36CFR800 is a document created by the ACHP to guide federal agencies through the Section 106 process. There are several key components to this process including: „ Determining if the project is an undertaking with the potential to affect historic properties „ Determining an Area of Potential Effects „ Identifying participants and interested parties „ Identifying historic properties „ Assessing whether the project will have an adverse effect on historic properties „ Resolving adverse effects to historic properties „ Documentation standards for Section 106-related documents „ Emergency and Post-review discovery procedures INTRODUCTION Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report 21 considered eligible for the NRHP for the purposes of compliance with Section 106 in Washington State. County regulation Properties within the unincorporated areas of King County may be designated and protected as King County landmarks under the King County Historic Preservation Program by the King County Landmarks and Heritage Commission. The Commission was created through a landmarks ordinance, King County Code (KCC) 20.62, adopted by the King County Council in 1980, which also provides controls to preserve historic sites in unincorporated King County. The County revised the ordinance in 1995 to include broader incentives to encourage property owners to rehabilitate historic properties and to conserve historically significant landscapes including archaeological sites and historic agricultural properties. Through the adoption of interlocal ordinances, the Commission currently acts as a municipal landmarks board for 14 cities and towns that have made agreements with the county for preservation services (for example, historic survey and inventory). What are the key points of this report? The Renton Nickel I-405 Team identified 124 historic architectural resources within the project Area of Potential Effect (APE). One of these resources is eligible for the NRHP, and this resource (the Renton Fire Station) and three others are currently listed on the WHR. None of these resources will be impacted by the project. The I-405 Team did not identify any archaeological or ethnographic sites in the I-405 Renton Nickel Improvement Project APE. However, there are a few areas of moderate archaeological probability. If crews encounter archaeological resources during construction activities, additional studies may be required to evaluate the eligibility of resources for the NRHP. WSDOT will develop appropriate mitigation if the resource is found to be NRHP eligible. Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report 22 EXISTING CONDITIONS How did we collect information on cultural resources for this report? The Renton Nickel I-405 Team collected information on cultural resources via background research and field investigations. The project team obtained background information on the APE by examining environmental reports, ethnographies, histories, historic maps, tax records, photographs, site records, and previous cultural survey reports on file at a number of agencies and organizations. Through this background research, we identified previously recorded archaeological resources, historic and architectural resources, and other cultural resources in the Renton Nickel Improvement Project APE and vicinity. We conducted field investigations to identify any previously unrecorded cultural resources and evaluated their historic significance within county, state, and federal guidance. The specific methods used to complete these tasks are detailed below. How did we determine the Area of Potential Effect (APE)? The I-405 Team identified the APE through consultation with interested parties, by reviewing project maps, and by conducting a windshield survey of the area. The cultural resources investigations for the Renton Nickel Improvement Project began by identifying parties interested in the project and defining the APE within the area. According to 36 CFR 800, the APE is the area within which an undertaking may cause direct or indirect changes to the character of any historic properties (36 CFR 800.16[d]). Therefore, the APE can extend beyond the actual area where construction is planned. We conducted visual reconnaissance of the I-405 project corridor and surface roads adjacent to the corridor to determine the extent to which the project has the potential to directly and indirectly affect historic properties. We consulted with King County, the DAHP, and the appropriate tribes to obtain their views and comments regarding the definition of the APE and to identify any concerns they may have regarding cultural resources within the APE in accordance with the implementing regulations What agencies and organizations were consulted? The I-405 Team consulted with these agencies and organizations to obtain background information: „ Washington State Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation „ King County „ King County Archives „ King County Department of Assessments „ Washington State Archives, Puget Sound Regional Branch „ King County Historic Preservation Program „ King County Assessor’s Office „ University of Washington Libraries „ Seattle Public Library „ King County Road Services Division „ Tukwila Historical Society „ Renton Historical Society „ Muckleshoot Indian Tribe „ Snoqualmie Indian Tribe „ Tulalip Tribe „ Confederated Tribes of the Yakama Indian Reservation „ Duwamish Tribe EXISTING CONDITIONS Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report 23 of the NHPA (36 CFR 800). Appendix A contains this correspondence. For other projects along the I-405 project corridor, the APE has been determined to extend to one property outside of the boundary of the corridor. In the case of the Renton Nickel Improvement Project, however, this boundary extends to one city block from the current ROW in select locations to account for an increased viewshed and auditory range associated with elevation change and open terrain as shown on Exhibit 10. The DAHP has concurred with the APE limits for the Renton Nickel Improvement Project. The APE for archaeological resources is limited to the portion of the project where ground-disturbing activities will be conducted, such as areas for demolition, construction, staging, equipment storage locations, stormwater management facilities, and wetland and stream mitigation sites. The area of ground disturbance will extend no more than 100 feet on either side of the existing I-405 roadway, as well as to locations for stormwater management facilities, temporary construction areas, wetland and stream mitigation sites, and other project features. How did we identify archaeological resources? The I-405 team identified archaeological resources through a combination of background research and field investigations. The project team researched archaeological site forms and survey reports on file at DAHP to identify previously recorded prehistoric and historic-period archaeological resources within the APE. We also used environmental, ethnographic, and historic data to identify potential archaeological resource locations. Topographic maps were used to identify areas of flat terrain adjacent to perennial water sources (available year-round) where prehistoric resources were likely to be located. We also examined a variety of historic maps including General Land Office (GLO) maps, Sanborn fire insurance maps, street atlases, and others to identify areas of past land use and to locate historic features that might have left archaeological remains. Although most of these structures are no longer standing, the maps indicate where historic-period cultural resources could be encountered. What guidance was used for identifying archaeological, historical, and architectural resources? The Secretary of the Interior's Standards and Guidelines for Archaeology and Historic Preservation provides general guidance for how to identify cultural resources. Importantly, they identify two levels of survey: reconnaissance and intensive survey. The principals of reconnaissance survey are applied to windshield and walkover survey. Intensive survey is a thorough survey of an area sufficient to determine the historic significance of cultural resources and may include shovel testing and detailed architectural descriptions. The DAHP publishes detailed guidance on how to conduct background research, field investigation, and reporting for research sufficient to meet the requirements of Section 106 investigations in Washington State. What are archaeological site forms? Researchers typically use Archaeology Site Inventory Forms to record data on archaeological resources. DAHP requires these forms to include information such as location details, maps, photographs, boundary definition, cultural context, and property ownership.

Finally, archaeologists conducted field investigations within the APE using reconnaissance and intensive survey techniques. We inspected aerial photographs and utilized windshield surveys to determine the potential for unidentified archaeological resources within the APE. We also conducted pedestrian surveys in areas where ground-disturbing activities will extend more than 100 feet from the existing I-405 roadway, such as proposed locations for stormwater detention ponds and wetland and stream mitigation sites. We walked transects spaced at 66- foot (20-meter) intervals and excavated shovel probes in areas that appeared to be sensitive for buried archaeological remains. Archaeologists excavated 13-inch-diameter (35-centimeter) shovel probes to an average depth of 16 inches (40 centimeters) below ground surface, depending on subsurface conditions, and screened excavated material through 1/4-inch mesh mounted on shaker screens. Archaeologists photographed the survey areas and recorded observations regarding subsurface stratigraphy, presence of cultural materials, disturbances, topography, and vegetation. We determined that while most of the APE is urban with very little native vegetation, many areas within the APE have moderate to high probability for containing prehistoric and historic resources, particularly along streams. Because the project is mainly limited to the existing roadway or previously disturbed roadway margins, we focused the majority of our archaeological shovel testing at the proposed locations for stormwater detention ponds. All shovel probes were negative; the subsurface surveys encountered no archaeological remains as shown on Exhibit 11. The proposed location for Stormwater Detention Pond G1.1 is on the northeast portion of the I-5/I-405 interchange. Although the area has experienced ground disturbance associated with previous freeway construction, it remains of moderate probability for archaeological deposits. This is due to its proximity to water sources, including the historic Black River channel, as well as previously recorded archaeological resources (see Appendix B). What is a windshield survey? Windshield surveys (also called reconnaissance surveys) are surveys that identify the location and distribution of historic resources in a certain area on a broad or general scale. “Reconnaissance surveys literally consist of driving around a community and noting the general distribution of buildings, structures, and neighborhoods representing different architectural styles, periods, and modes of construction. Because reconnaissance surveys record only observable information, they may not provide sufficient information with which to make determinations of eligibility beyond architectural significance.” Washington State Standards for Cultural Resources, p. 14 What is a pedestrian survey? Pedestrian surveys are physical inspections of areas within the APE. Most commonly, the ground surface is carefully examined in evenly spaced transects over the entire area.

As shown on Exhibit 12, the team excavated eight shovel probes in the immediate vicinity of the proposed location for Pond G1.1, but they encountered no archaeological remains. EXISTING CONDITIONS Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report 27 Stormwater Detention Pond G1.2 will be located immediately south of I-405 and southwest of the off- ramp for SR 181 along the east bank of the Green River. The channel of the Green River was moved to the west in 1963 for construction of the I-405/SR 181 interchange. A portion of the original Green River channel remains 82 feet to the southeast of Pond G1.2. Prehistoric archaeological site 45KI6 was in the path of the new Green River channel 246 feet to the west of Pond G1.2 and was destroyed in constructing the new Green River channel; however, portions of the site may be intact in other locations that were not investigated for the I-405/SR 181 interchange project. This pond location has a high potential for containing archaeological deposits due to its proximity to the original river channel and Site 45KI6. We excavated four shovel probes as shown on Exhibit 13 and observed no archaeological remains. We noted two cherry trees, several horse chestnut trees, and an overgrown concrete slab in the site area. The potential staging area for the Springbrook Creek Bridge replacement was also investigated for archaeological remains. This parcel is located between I-405 and SW 16th Street, just west of Springbrook Creek. The area has moderate probability for containing archaeological deposits, despite having been disturbed by clearing due to its proximity to the creek and previously documented archaeological resources. The archaeologist walked transects spaced 10 meters apart within the area and placed one shovel probe in the center. The archaeologist observed no archaeological deposits (Exhibit 14). The location for Stormwater Detention Pond S1.1 is a paved and graveled parking lot as shown on Exhibit 4 in the Introduction. Located between I-405 and SW 16th Street, this site has low probability for containing archaeological deposits due to extensive disturbance and distance from water sources. We were prevented from examining soil deposits during the pedestrian survey by the pavement and gravel. Stormwater Pond S2.2. is located along the east shoulder of Benson Road South and west of I-405 (see Exhibit 8 in the Introduction). The pond is southwest of the previously identified historic resource 45KI211. Two shovel probes were placed at the north end of this proposed pond near Site 45KI211 (Exhibit 15).

Generally, the area surrounding Stormwater Pond S2.2 has been disturbed and has a low potential for containing archaeological resources. Three additional shovel probes also were excavated south of the proposed detention pond based on an earlier alignment of stormwater facilities in this area. These tests also produced disturbed soils. The proposed location for Stormwater Pond S3.1, between East Valley Road and SR 167, is situated at the east margin of the Green/Duwamish River Valley floodplain. Before 1917, when the opening of the Lake Washington Ship Canal lowered the lake level by 10 feet, the lower floodplain consisted of marshes and a maze of intersecting drainages. Once the area was drained and protected from flooding, industrial development spread rapidly. The location for Pond S3.1 has since experienced substantial alterations from previous development (see Exhibit 6 in the Introduction). Pavement covers most of the ground surface, which prevented examination of soil exposures. We conducted a pedestrian survey and determined the site to have low probability for archaeological resources due to the high level of previous ground disturbance and its distance from any natural drainage. The drainage flowing along the east edge of the site (parallel to SR 167) is a product of landscaping associated with freeway construction. How did we identify historic and architectural resources? The project team used similar methods to identify and evaluate historic and architectural resources. We analyzed archival records, historic property inventory forms, historic and aerial photographs, and historic maps on file at DAHP, the King County Archives, the King County Department of Assessments, and the Puget Sound Regional Branch of the Washington State Archives. We also consulted a variety of historic maps and histories on the Tukwila and Renton areas on file at libraries and other institutions to identify historic and architectural resources that may not have been previously recorded on local or state forms. In addition to these standard research techniques, the project team accessed available online tax record databases to identify all aboveground resources 50 Proposed location for Stormwater Detention Pond S3.1, looking east Proposed location for Stormwater Detention Pond S2.2, looking northeast EXISTING CONDITIONS Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report 33 years of age and older within the APE. This technique allowed us to identify architectural properties that needed to be recorded and evaluated for the project during the fieldwork. Finally, we conducted windshield surveys of all historic resources within the Renton Nickel Improvement Project APE. All historical resources were recorded in the Washington State DAHP Historic Property Inventory Database. As part of the field investigations, we revisited previously identified buildings and structures to assess their current state and architectural integrity. We also recorded all properties more than 50 years old that were not previously recorded in state files. We examined the neighborhoods located east and west of the project to determine whether a historic district might be present that had not been previously identified. A relatively new publication from the National Park Service1 was particularly helpful in assessing the potential for a historic district within the APE. We then conducted reconnaissance (or windshield) field surveys of these resources. The tax database provided the year of construction as well as the property's current use. The team maintained a database to track each of these resources by tax parcel number and address to ensure that they were appropriately mapped. During field survey key architectural features were recorded, photographs were taken, and preliminary evaluation of each resource's historic significance was assessed. Appendix D provides this information. How were other cultural resources identified? We consulted with tribes that may be affected by the project to help identify traditional cultural use areas and areas of historic land use within the APE. These traditional cultural properties (TCPs) include districts, sites, buildings, structures, and objects valued by a community for the role they play in sustaining the community’s cultural integrity. 1 Historic Residential Suburbs: Guidelines for Evaluation and Documentation for the National Register of Historic Places, Ames and McClelland, 2002. EXISTING CONDITIONS Renton Nickel Improvement Project 34 Cultural Resources Discipline Report What tribal consultations were included? WSDOT initiated tribal consultation by sending letters describing the proposed project to the designated cultural representative of the federally recognized Muckleshoot Indian Tribe, Snoqualmie Indian Tribe, Tulalip Tribes, the Confederated Tribes of the Yakama Indian Reservation, as well as the non-federally recognized Duwamish Tribe. Copies of these letters can be found in Appendix A. We also conducted ethnographic research in response to concerns raised by the Muckleshoot Tribe during preparation of the I-405 Corridor Program NEPA/SEPA Draft Environmental Impact Statement. One primary source is T. T. Waterman’s Puget Sound Geography (ca. 1920), which contains locational and descriptive information of many Indian place names in the region. Following archival and literature review of ethnographic materials on file at various agencies and institutions, including the University of Washington Libraries, we reviewed the results with the Muckleshoot representatives to address their desire to participate in more detailed consultation. The remaining tribes have communicated their concerns during follow-up telephone conversations. What historical, cultural, and archaeological resources are in the APE? Determining what historical, cultural, and archaeological resources were in the APE involved background research of previous cultural resources studies and field investigations to identify any new resources that may be present within the APE. What previous cultural resources studies have been conducted in the area? Numerous cultural resources studies in the vicinity of the Renton Nickel Improvement Project APE have been previously conducted. These have been in conjunction with commercial and industrial development within the floodplains of the contemporary Duwamish/Green River and Cedar River, especially near the confluence of the historic Black and White (now Green) rivers (the Black River ceased to flow shortly after construction of the Lake Washington ship canal in 1916). Review of these documents on file at DAHP revealed 82 previous What is a Traditional Cultural Property? The National Park Service defines a traditional cultural property (TCP) as "a property that is eligible for inclusion in the National Register because of its association with cultural practices or beliefs of a living community that (a) are rooted in that community's history, and (b) are important in maintaining the continuing cultural identity of the community properties. " Source: King and King 1998. EXISTING CONDITIONS Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report 35 studies within 0.5 miles of the APE as shown in Appendix B, Table B-2. The most relevant of these studies are briefly discussed here. In 1984, Robinson and Krafft performed a cultural resources study as part of the Environmental Impact Statement for the SR 405/HOV Lanes Project, South Renton Interchange to Sunset Boulevard. The archaeologists identified four properties listed on the WHR, six properties listed on the King County Historic Sites Survey, and three unlisted properties that were later determined ineligible for inclusion as King County Landmarks, or listing in the NRHP or WHR. The archaeologists did not report any previously unidentified archaeological resources. As a mitigation measure from the 1984 study, Eastern Washington University’s Archaeological and Historical Services conducted archaeological monitoring of preliminary construction work on the south bank of the Cedar River at the SR 167/Sunset Boulevard interchange.2 The archaeologists encountered no cultural deposits that would be considered eligible for listing in the NRHP. Northwest Archaeological Associates, Incorporated, conducted a cultural resources inventory of the proposed Washington Light Lanes Project in 2001. The inventory consisted of literature review and windshield survey along the I-405 western right-of-way (ROW) margin. The archaeologists encountered no previously unidentified cultural resources and recommended a “No Historical Resources Affected” determination as documented in the study. What previously identified archaeological resources are in the APE? The I-405 project team also reviewed archaeological site forms for previously recorded prehistoric and historic period archaeological resources located within and in the vicinity of the APE. These forms provided information on the variation of site types, site use, age range, and artifacts that may be encountered during construction activities associated with the Renton Nickel Improvement Project. We identified ten 2 Archaeological Monitoring of SR 405: South Renton Interchange to Sunset Boulevard, S-Curves Project Renton, King County, Washington, Robinson, 1992. EXISTING CONDITIONS Renton Nickel Improvement Project 36 Cultural Resources Discipline Report previously recorded prehistoric and historic period archaeological resources within 0.5 miles of the APE as shown in Appendix B, Table B-1. A prehistoric site identified as 45KI6 is the only previously recorded archaeological resource within the boundaries of the APE. The site was a shell midden, a concentration of marine shell (e.g., clam, oyster, mussel), that is the result of human activity and often found in association with various artifacts. Artifacts were previously recorded at this location along the west bank of the Green River 10 feet below ground surface. The site was originally encountered during construction of the I-405/SR 181 interchange in 1963 and the site was subsequently destroyed by construction.3 In 1978, the University of Washington’s Office of Public Archaeology (OPA) reported additional midden deposits and “wooden posts which formed [a] V-shaped fish trap in [the] main river (Green River) channel,” but these deposits also were destroyed during road construction.4 This site is believed to be destroyed, and the bridge spanning the Green River will not be widened as part of this project. These results from previous archaeological surveys in the vicinity of the Renton Nickel Improvement Project APE suggest that the edges of both contemporary and historic river channels within the Duwamish/Green River and Cedar River floodplains possess a high probability for prehistoric, ethnographic period, and historic period archaeological resources. Appendix C provides a detailed discussion of the environmental context and cultural sequence of the APE. Although ground disturbance associated with commercial and residential development has altered the landscape, intact archaeological deposits may still be buried within thick alluvial deposits. 3 45KI6.

EXISTING CONDITIONS Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report 37 What previously identified historic resources are in the APE? The project team identified no properties listed in the NRHP within the Renton Nickel Improvement Project APE. However, we identified four historic properties listed on the WHR and one property listed in the King County Historic Sites Survey. The Cedar River Park Railroad Bridge is associated with the Columbia and Puget Sound Railroad, which was built by Seattle business interests as a response to Northern Pacific’s choice of Tacoma as its western terminus for a transcontinental railroad. The line was originally known as the Seattle & Walla Walla Railroad and Transportation Company5 and had a railway extending from Seattle to Renton by 1877.6 In 1880, the Columbia and Puget Sound Railroad (C&PS) took over the line and began extending the rail up the Cedar River to take advantage of the region’s large coal deposits. A 16.6-mile section of the line (45KI538) was formally recorded in 1996 during field reconnaissance for a proposed fiber optic line.7 This section runs through the northern end of the APE, between the Renton Substation and the Renton Fire Station, and continues for approximately 7.6 miles east along the south bank of the Cedar River as an abandoned grade. The rails and ties have been removed and the grade now serves as a pedestrian trail. The active portion of the railway continues north across the Cedar River, over a 130-foot steel Pratt-type through-truss bridge. Nelson’s survey in 1996 documented various features and artifacts associated with the grade, including the Cedar River Park Railroad Bridge, and the survey concluded that although the railway (45KI538) has not been formally evaluated for nomination, it is potentially eligible for listing in both the WHR and the NRHP. The bridge dates to 1908 and is a typical example of a through-truss bridge; it does not appear to have historical or architectural significance that would warrant listing in the NRHP. 5 Orphan Road, The Railroad Comes to Seattle, 1853-1911.

The substation was built in 1898 as part of the distribution system that enabled the generating station at Snoqualmie Falls to send power to Seattle and Tacoma for service applications such as street railways and lighting. It is a three-story, 43- by 43-foot brick masonry building, located on the eastern periphery of Renton’s business district and just west of I-405. The substation interior originally consisted of a single large room to house the transformers and switching equipment. By the end of the 1940s, the substation and its services were no longer required; the building was sold and the new owner installed a heavy timber framing system that now divides the space into three separate levels. In 1953, a single-story, concrete block addition was built along the west elevation, obscuring the first story. Subsequent renovation, such as the addition of new display windows and the painting of exterior brickwork, has been undertaken to accommodate various agencies, including the Renton Area Youth Services and a low-income medical clinic. The property was denied listing on the NRHP due to these alterations, but it remains as a visual reminder of the electrification of Puget Sound communities in the late 1890s. The Renton Fire Station (45KI209), located across the street from the substation at the corner of Houser Way and Mill Avenue, has remained structurally unaltered since it was completed in 1942. Designed in the Art Deco or Moderne style, the symmetrical, concrete building has a central two-story truck bay (approximately 30 by 48 feet) and two one-story wings (each approximately 22 by 60 feet) with horizontal grooves along the exterior. Rounded corners and decorative bands that form roofline friezes further exemplify the Art Deco style. 8 Renton Substation, Snoqualmie Falls Power Company (45KI74).

The bell used to alert the volunteer firemen is still mounted at the top. Designed by Russian architect Ivan M. Palmaw, the Renton Fire Station is the last existing building or structure in the area built by the Works Progress Administration. A grant from the King County Office of Historic Preservation helped fund the restoration and remodeling of the building, which now houses the Renton Historical Society and Museum. The Renton Coal Mine Hoist Foundation (45KI211) is an irregularly shaped, solid concrete structure measuring approximately 24 feet in length, 19 feet in width, and seven feet in height. The mine opened in 1873, but the existing hoist foundation was not constructed until 1890. It replaced an earlier hoist located in the near vicinity. The foundation supported a Ledgewood steam hoist, which pulled coal-filled cars out of the mine and lowered empty cars, men, and materials into the mine. The mounting bolts that held the hoisting engine and the steel cable reel in place are still attached to the structure. The foundation and engine were originally enclosed by a wood-framed structure with a patched metal roof, but this enclosure was removed with the engine circa 1920. From the entrance (now under I-405), the mine’s main slope descended east at 12 degrees for over a mile and branched more than 22 times to the north and south. During the span of its operation from 1873 to 1920, over 1,300,000 tons of coal were removed from the mine. 45KI211 is listed on the Washington Heritage Register for being the last visible and easily accessible evidence of the historic Renton Coal Mine and Washington’s once active coal industry. See also Appendix C. What historic resources were identified during the survey? The project team reviewed the King County tax records database after a review of project maps and the windshield survey for the APE determined that several resources within the APE were likely greater than 50 years old. The tax database review identified 122 parcels within the APE that contained resources built before 1956. Of these, two were the previously discussed, the Renton Substation of the Snoqualmie Falls Power Company (45KI74) and the Renton Fire Station (45KI209). A third resource has also been previously identified (at 1223 South 3rd Street), but the documentation was for the King County Historic Renton Coal Mine Hoist Foundation (45KI211), looking west EXISTING CONDITIONS Renton Nickel Improvement Project 40 Cultural Resources Discipline Report Sites Survey; hence, it did not receive a site number. Two additional parcels contained historic properties: the Columbia and Puget Sound Railroad (45KI538) and the Renton Coal Mine Hoist Foundation (45KI211) for a total of 124 parcels containing historic resources within the APE as shown on Exhibits 16 through 21. The I-405 Team conducted windshield survey of all resources 50 years or older within the APE and recorded 119 new architectural resources. This involved recording the address and basic architectural style information, and photographing the resource. The tax database provided the year of construction as well as the property's current use. A database was maintained to track each of these resources by tax parcel number and address to ensure that they were appropriately mapped as provided in Appendix D. The majority of these resources dated to the post- World War II period and were located on Talbot Hill, Renton Hill, and sporadically throughout the rest of the APE. A relatively high number (41) of resources in downtown Renton and on Renton Hill dated to between 1900 and 1938 and did not contain significant modern improvements. These properties were within the original town limits that were platted and filed in 1876. Renton's boundaries ran from the Cedar River three-quarters of a mile south along Burnett Street to Seventh Avenue, east five blocks to Cedar Street, and north back to the river. This portion of Renton flourished in the early twentieth century around the Renton coal mine and the Renton brick factory, known collectively as the Denny-Renton Clay & Coal Company after a consolidation in 1905. The brick factory was at one time the largest producer of paving brick in the country, producing 58 million bricks in 1917. But its output dwindled after World War I due to the mass production of the automobile. Automobiles changed the type of roads needed and the market for paving brick dwindled.9 Just before World War II, the Boeing Company drastically increased the production of airplanes. Thereafter, development of the City of Renton was much more closely associated with the aircraft industry. 9 Renton: Where the Water Took Wing.

Only two and a half of the original town's 5-block-width are within the APE. Forty-one resources within this area date to the early to mid- twentieth century and have not been altered substantially as shown in Appendix D. Fourteen additional resources within the APE are more recent or are so significantly altered that they would not be easily recognized as a part of this historic neighborhood. Appendix D provides additional information on these resources. As part of this project, the I-405 Team evaluated whether a historic district exists in this area, but determined that this area does not constitute a historic district. The results of this evaluation are discussed in the next section. What potentially eligible historic resources are in the APE? No new historic sites were identified within the project APE. Four additional resources are currently listed on the Washington Heritage Register (WHR), and one of these (the Renton Fire Station) is eligible for the NRHP. These four resources are: the Renton Substation of the Snoqualmie Falls Power Company (45KI74), the Renton Fire Station (45KI209), the Renton Coal Mine Hoist Foundation (45KI211), and C&PS Railroad (45KI538). There are 119 newly identified resources within the APE that are old enough to be considered for eligibility to the NRHP, or the WHR as shown on Exhibits 14 through 20. The project team evaluated these properties individually and as possible resources that could contribute to a historic district. The project team concluded that these properties are neither individually eligible for the NRHP nor are they contributing resources to a historic district. Concurrence with this conclusion will be sought from the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO). The 119 newly surveyed properties largely represent residences associated with early- to mid-twentieth century growth of the City of Renton surrounding the Renton coal mine and brick factory; thus, their potential historic significance would likely be derived from their association with an important event or broad pattern of history (Criterion A) or association with an important person (Criterion B). An association with an important architectural style or master architect was also considered for these resources. What is a historic district? Historic districts may contain a variety of resource types but these resources are held together by a common historic theme and time period. Historic districts, like other historic properties, must also have definable boundaries. Per National Park Service Bulletin No. 15 1990, "A district possesses a significant concentration, linkage, or continuity of sites, buildings, structures, or objects united historically or aesthetically by plan or physical development. " Town plat for Renton filed in 1875 by Erasmus Smithers EXISTING CONDITIONS Renton Nickel Improvement Project 48 Cultural Resources Discipline Report The residences on Renton Hill and the commercial properties in downtown Renton dating to before 1938 can be traced to growth and success of the coal mine and the brick factory during the pre-World War II period. However, none of these resources was determined to be associated with an important person or specific event, nor were they found to be good examples of a particular architectural style, movement, or work of a master architect. These structures largely represent typical forms from their respective times including Arts and Crafts Bungalows and American Four Squares. These forms are quite common in the region, and there are much better examples in the area. Though the coal mining and brick making history of Renton is an important part of its history, none of the newly recorded properties were found to have played a significant role in that history, which is essential for considering a resource to be eligible for the NHRP under Criterion A for its association with a broad pattern of history. The Renton Substation of the Snoqualmie Falls Power Company (45KI74), the Renton Fire Station (45KI209), the Columbia and Puget Sound Railroad (45KI538), and the Renton Coal Mine Hoist Foundation (45KI211) are much better examples of properties that played a more direct role in the early to mid-twentieth century history of Renton. The I-405 Team also considered whether a historic district was present. We evaluated these resources as a potential district under National Register Criterion A for their association with the early to mid-twentieth century history of Renton. The team did not evaluate the entire area where a historic district may be located because much of it was outside the project APE. However, the reconnaissance survey afforded the opportunity to examine many of the properties that would be part of a potential historic district, and we believe that the area does not retain sufficient integrity to qualify for a historic district as defined by NRHP standards. The potential district would include three full blocks west of I-405 running from the Cedar River south to South 7th Street. Although several historic resources within this area retain individual integrity and could be considered contributing structures to a historic district, this overall area lacks integrity of setting, design, feeling, and association. The downtown Renton area is largely characterized by more modern construction such as City Hall, contemporary city and private office buildings, several recent commercial properties, and contemporary light industrial properties dating from the 1960s through the EXISTING CONDITIONS Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report 49 1990s. The downtown area, in fact, retains so few structures from the early to mid-twentieth century, it would be impossible to recognize that the town experienced significant growth during this time. The current I-405 right-of-way further diminishes this area's integrity of setting, design, feeling, and association by separating the industrial and commercial properties west of the roadway from the residential properties east of the roadway. There is no visible connection between the two areas; many of the more recently introduced buildings and structures are adjacent to I-405 so that the areas containing the most resources likely to contribute to the feeling of a historic district are separated from each other by substantial modern intrusions. For these reasons, the team concluded that neither the downtown Renton nor Renton Hill areas represent a historic district because they do not retain integrity of setting, design, feeling, or association. Concurrence with this conclusion will be sought from the Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation. Renton Nickel Improvement Project 50 Cultural Resources Discipline Report POTENTIAL EFFECTS What methods were used to evaluate the project's potential effects? The I-405 Team applied the criteria of adverse effects outlined in 36 CFR 800.5 of the Section 106 process to determine if the project will have an adverse effect on any of the historic properties or Washington Heritage Register (WHR) properties identified for the project. For the purposes of this project, the team evaluated the potential effect of the project not only on historic properties (resources that are on or eligible for the NRHP) but also on WHR properties; however, it should be recognized that only resources that are on or eligible for the NRHP can be adversely affected by the project as defined by the Section 106 process. This process serves as a good model for working through whether or not a project may have an effect on a WHR property, so it was used to discuss potential impacts to these properties. None of the 119 newly recorded resources, described previously in the Existing Conditions, are eligible for the NRHP or the WHR, so none of these resources are potentially affected. Properties that may be affected by the project include the Renton Coal Mine Hoist Foundation (45KI211), the Renton Substation of the Snoqualmie Falls Power Company (45KI74), and the Renton Fire Station (45KI209). Of these four sites, only the Renton Fire Station is eligible for the NRHP, although all four sites are on the WHR. The team does not feel that the project has the potential to affect the Columbia and Puget Sound Railroad (45KI538) because it is at the extreme edge of the project APE and there are no above ground elements that could be indirectly affected through changes to the visual character of the landscape. Projects like the Renton Nickel Improvement Project have the potential to affect historic properties directly or indirectly. Direct effects for this project would likely be limited to physical destruction or removal of the property to a new location. Indirect effects for the Renton Nickel Improvement Project could include increased noise associated with traffic, introduction of sound barriers that diminish a property's setting, and increased vibration that may diminish the property's structural stability over time. Some specific project What is an "effect?" Following 36 CFR 800.16, an “effect” is an alteration to the characteristics of a property that make it eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). Such alterations can be direct or indirect. Direct effects include physical alteration, change in use, displacement, neglect to the point of deterioration, transfer or sale without agreements that require preservation, or destruction of a historic property. Indirect effects include those likely to affect the property's setting through the introduction of audible, visual, or atmospheric features. Adverse effects may also include effects that could reasonably occur in the future as a result of the current project or be cumulative. POTENTIAL EFFECTS Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report 51 effects for the Renton Nickel Improvement Project include: „ Alteration of setting and feeling due to construction of and appearance of new lane configurations and appearance of stormwater facilities „ Alteration of setting and feeling due to increased noise and vibration associated with additional lanes „ Alteration or destruction of archaeological sites during construction The Renton Nickel Improvement Project will not have an adverse effect on any of the resources under consideration; however, construction associated with bridge replacement at Springbrook Creek and proposed Stormwater Pond G1.2 could encounter deeply buried archaeological deposits that could not be identified during survey, and additional archaeology work may be necessary in these locations. The following sections describe the specific potential effects of the project on cultural resources. Will project construction temporarily affect historic properties in the APE? The I-405 Team concluded that no historic properties would be affected by construction. The project has the potential to affect the Renton Coal Mine Hoist Foundation (45KI211) because it is located between Benson Road and the I-405 roadway and it is adjacent to one proposed stormwater pond as shown on Exhibits 8 and 20. Site 45KI211 will not be adversely affected by construction of the pond provided it is not directly impacted by the pond construction. Additional resources are too far removed from the construction area to be affected by construction. Because the team found that the Renton Hill and Downtown Renton areas do not qualify for listing on the NRHP as a historic district, and none of the structures within the potential district’s boundaries are individually significant (except those listed above), the project does not have the potential to temporarily affect these resources. Though no archaeological resources were identified here during the survey, the Springbrook Creek bridge replacement and Stormwater Pond G1.2 have the potential to encounter deeply buried archaeological deposits that could not be identified at the time of the POTENTIAL EFFECTS Renton Nickel Improvement Project 52 Cultural Resources Discipline Report survey. Because construction of these project elements has the potential to affect undiscovered historic properties, additional archaeological investigation should be conducted. Such investigations could include monitoring during construction and/or survey following removal of fill during construction. Will the project permanently affect historic properties in the APE? The Renton Nickel Improvement Project will not permanently affect any historic resources in the APE. As previously mentioned, the project has the potential to affect the Renton Coal Mine Hoist Foundation (45KI211), the Substation of the Snoqualmie Falls Power Company (45KI74), and the Renton Fire Station (45KI209); however, the I-405 Team has concluded that the project will not adversely affect these resources. Concurrence with this conclusion will be sought from SHPO. Both the Renton Substation of the Snoqualmie Falls Power Company (45KI74) and the Renton Fire Station (45KI209) are at the outermost edge of the cultural resources APE. Consequently, the aspects of these resources' integrity with the highest likelihood of being affected by the project would be their setting and feeling. The project does not have the potential to alter the location, design, workmanship, materials, or association of these resources because the project will not physically alter them or their immediate surroundings. The team has concluded that the setting and association of these resources will not be altered because these resources were constructed within an urban environment for the purpose of serving an urban population. As such, transportation corridors are appropriate inclusions within their settings. The project will not introduce any new elements that are inconsistent with the established traffic patterns of the area and will not decrease public access to these properties. The project has a greater potential to affect the Renton Coal Mine Hoist Foundation (45KI211) because it is located between Benson Road and the I-405 roadway and it is adjacent to one proposed stormwater pond. This project element will alter the immediate surroundings of the Renton Coal Mine Hoist Foundation (45KI211). The project team considered whether the introduction of this pond and the realignment of Benson Road would diminish this POTENTIAL EFFECTS Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report 53 resource's integrity of setting, feeling, and association. The team concluded that the project will not adversely affect this resource. When 45KI211 was nominated to the WHR it most likely did not retain integrity of setting, feeling, or association. Moreover, the team did not feel that the project had the potential to alter the location, design, workmanship, or materials of this resource because the project will not physically alter the Renton Coal Mine Hoist Foundation. The site form for this resource was created in 1975 after I-405 had been constructed. The form stated that the foundation had been in the same condition along Benson Road since 1920. Since 1920, I-405 was constructed, but other visible reminders of the coal mine were no longer standing at that time. The principal reason for its nomination to the WHR was that it was considered “one of the few visible reminders of Washington's once active coal industry.” The project will not compromise this resource's integrity of location, design, workmanship, or materials, and it has previously been considered historically significant without retaining integrity of setting, feeling, or association. The project will not adversely affect the Renton Coal Mine Hoist Foundation (45KI211) because the project will not introduce any new elements that will diminish characteristics of this property that qualify it for inclusion in the WHR. Concurrence with these conclusions will be sought from SHPO. As previously mentioned, construction associated with the Springbrook Creek bridge replacement and Stormwater Pond G1.2 have the potential to encounter deeply buried archaeological deposits that could not be identified at the time of the survey. Additional archaeological investigations including monitoring during construction and/or survey following removal of fill during construction are recommended. Finally, because the study team found that the Renton Hill and Downtown Renton neighborhoods do not qualify for listing on the NRHP as historic districts, and none of the structures within the potential district boundaries are individually significant, the project does not have the potential to permanently affect these resources. Concurrence with this conclusion will be sought from SHPO. POTENTIAL EFFECTS Renton Nickel Improvement Project 54 Cultural Resources Discipline Report Does the project have other effects that could be delayed or distant from the project? The I-405 Team examined whether the project might have an indirect effect on historic properties. An effect is considered indirect when it occurs later in time or farther removed in distance from an original project action. Indirect effects may include effects related to changes in land use patterns, population density or growth rate, and related effects on other natural systems. The I-405 Team concluded that there would be no anticipated indirect effects to the Substation of the Snoqualmie Falls Power Company (45KI74) and the Renton Fire Station (45KI209) because these resources are currently within an urban setting that should not experience any development inconsistent with their current setting as a result of this project. It is possible that the Renton Coal Mine Hoist Foundation (45KI211) could be adversely affected in the future by widening Benson Road. The foundation is currently at the south edge of the roadway, and improvements to this roadway to the south may encourage future improvements to the north that could plan for the removal of this resource. Were cumulative effects looked at for this discipline? The team did not evaluate cumulative effects for this discipline report. A report of cumulative effects is not needed for every discipline studied for NEPA and SEPA documentation. The disciplines that were studied for cumulative effects are Air Quality, Surface Water and Water Quality, Fisheries and Aquatic Habitat, and Wetlands. The cumulative effects for these disciplines are presented in the Cumulative Effects Analysis Discipline Report. Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report 55 MEASURES TO AVOID OR MINIMIZE PROJECT EFFECTS What will be done to avoid or minimize negative effects to cultural resources? The I-405 Team has concluded that the project will not adversely affect any historic properties or WHR properties; therefore, no avoidance or minimization efforts are necessary. What will be done to minimize construction effects? The I-405 Team does not anticipate any construction- related effects to the historic properties and resources that were identified during the survey. The Springbrook Creek bridge replacement staging and ecology embankment areas and the Stormwater Pond G1.2 area may contain deeply buried archaeological resources that could not be identified at the time of the survey. Stormwater Pond G1.2 has a greater likelihood of containing such resources due to its proximity to Site 45KI6 and the Green River despite known previous disturbances to this area. The potential staging area for the Springbrook Creek bridge replacement and ecology embankments have less potential for containing deeply buried deposits due to previous disturbances to Springbrook Creek in this area and the probability of lower order streams to contain such resources in the region. Archaeological monitoring of construction and/or survey following fill removal at these locations could minimize potential effects to undiscovered archaeological resources. A plan for these investigations should be completed that outlines a process to ensure that archaeological resources are not inadvertently disturbed during construction. Such a plan should include a variety of archaeological methods (including survey, monitoring, or an unanticipated discovery plan) based on the probability of the individual areas to contain archaeological resources. POTENTIAL EFFECTS Renton Nickel Improvement Project 56 Cultural Resources Discipline Report How will the project mitigate unavoidable negative effects? The I-405 Team has concluded that the project will not adversely affect any historic properties or WHR properties; therefore, no avoidance or minimization efforts are necessary.

Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report C-1 C.1 Environmental Context The character of the study area has changed substantially in the past century. Prior to historic settlement, Lake Washington, the Sammamish River, and numerous creeks provided a rich aquatic environment for the Duwamish Indians and their neighbors. These Puget Sound tribes hunted, fished, and gathered the abundant resources of the waterways and surrounding woodlands and prairies. Euro-American settlers had an enormous impact on the region by clearing forests, suppressing fires, draining wetlands, and diverting drainages. The opening of a canal between Lake Washington and Elliott Bay in 1917 resulted in a lowering of the lake’s water level below its outlet to the Black River. With water from the lake draining exclusively through the canal, rather than through the Black and Duwamish rivers, engineers decided to channelize and re-direct the Cedar River into Lake Washington to make up for the loss of water. The historic Black River channel was no longer a source of floodwaters in the Duwamish Valley and was reduced to draining only a small local area. C.1.1 Natural History The study area is located along the terraces east of Lake Washington, within the Puget Lowland, a physiographic trough that runs from Canada to the Columbia River. The topography of the Puget Lowland is primarily a result of glaciation during the last ice age, with the last stage, the Vashon Stade, retreating from the area approximately 13,500 years ago (Galster and Laprade 1991:249; Franklin and Dyrness 1973:16). As the glaciers retreated, meltwater carved many of today’s major river channels. Glacial till forms the parent material of many soils throughout this part of King County (Snyder et al. 1973). During much of the ice age, the region lay beneath a thick layer of glacial ice. However, vegetation began to re-establish shortly after the glaciers' retreat. Various species of pine and other pioneer plants quickly established themselves on glacial outwash deposits, giving way to Douglas fir and other plants from 8,000 to 5,000 years ago when the climate was about 2° Celsius warmer than at present (Whitlock 1992). The modern climatic regime was established about 5,000 years ago, as signaled by the presence of western redcedar throughout the Puget Sound area. The large trough that developed into Lake Washington was one of many north-south trending depressions formed by the retreating ice of the Vashon Stade. In the immediate postglacial period, these troughs filled with marine water to form Puget Sound. Lake Washington was a marine embayment of the Sound before sediments from the Cedar River blocked its connection (Dragovich et al. 1994). The Lake was then fed by glacial meltwater and ancestral channels of the Cedar, Duwamish, and Puyallup rivers. Drainage occurred at the south end of the lake via the Black River, which flowed into the Duwamish River and subsequently into Elliott Bay. The Black River also collected the waters of the Cedar River, just south of its head at Lake Washington. Opening the Lake Washington Ship Canal in 1916 dramatically altered these waterways. The lake level was lowered by 10 feet, exposing a broad terrace around the lake margin. The Cedar River was diverted into the lake and the Black River ceased flowing. Lake Washington now drains exclusively through the cuts made for the Lake Washington Ship Canal (Galster and Laprade 1991:249, 288). The I-405 Renton Nickel Improvement Project study area lies within the historic floodplain of the Black River, now situated within contemporary floodplains of the Duwamish River- Green River and Cedar River valleys. The repeated advance and retreat of glacial ice in the Puget Lowland and the resulting changes in sea level due to melting ice sheets and vertical changes in the earth's crust have shaped the APPENDIX C Renton Nickel Improvement Project C-2 Cultural Resources Discipline Report familiar landscape of the study area. These geologic processes also have major implications for the preservation and visibility of archaeological remains in the region (Campbell 1981; Johnson and Stright 1991; Stright 1990; Whittaker and Stein 1992). The deposition of sands and gravels, as well as erosion and inundation, play a role in determining the nature and age of archaeological remains recoverable in the region. River valleys, bays, lagoons, and rock outcrops are where cultural deposits are most likely to be discovered (Stright 1990:461). C.1.2 Terrestrial Microenvironments Given the study area’s proximity to Puget Sound and surrounding forests and hills, former inhabitants of the area had access to rich and varied resources associated with several environments. The following discussion of terrestrial microenvironments focuses on vegetation patterns, which form more or less stable and distinctive floral and faunal communities. The Puget Sound area is located within the Western Hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla) Zone, which represents old-growth, temperate coniferous forests in the region. Within this zone, however, are many specialized habitats, several of which are represented around the study area. The uplands are moderately to heavily forested with Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii), western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla), and western red cedar (Thuja plicata) dominating the overstory. Red alder (Alnus rubra) and big-leaf maple (Acer macrophyllum) are deciduous components that represent secondary species in forested habitats and are dominant in disturbed areas. Bogs that formed in ridgetop depressions are common features and support a variety of plant and animal species (Franklin and Dyrness 1973). The vegetation on river bottomlands and lake margins ranges from forests to associations of semi- aquatic plants (depending upon the level of the water table), drainage characteristics, and elevation above river level. Thickets of deciduous trees and shrubs grow near lake margins, river levees, and former river channels, and include willow (Salix spp.), birch (Betula spp.), vine maple (Acer circinatum), red alder (Alnus rubra), crabapple (Pyrus fusca), and western hazel (Corylus cornuta). The main understory plants include hardhack (Spiraea sp.), horsetail (Equisetum spp.), salmonberry (Rubus spectabilis), bulrushes (Scirpus spp.), salal (Gaultheria shallon), and rose (Rosa spp.). The main groundcover plants include sedges (Carex spp.), skunk cabbage (Lysichitum americanum), black twinberry (Lonicera involucrata), lady fern (Athyrium filix-femina), and sweet gale (Myrica gale). Camas (Camassia quamash), wapato (Sagittaria lancifolia), brackenfern (Pteridium aquilinum), and a host of edible berries were available in the Puget Sound prior to the 1900s. Native people from all around the Sound would travel south to the Nisqually prairies to gather acorns from Garry oaks (Quercus garreyana) for roasting in the fall (Suttles and Lane 1990:489) The land mammals that occupied these microenvironments are known from ethnohistoric records and have been identified in archaeological and paleontological studies. Blacktail deer (Odocoileus hemionus), elk (Cervus canadensis), mountain lion (Felis concolor), black bear (Ursus americanus), bobcat (Lynx rufus), marmot (Marmota sp.), and coyote (Canis latrans) occupied the uplands and bottomlands (Campbell 1981; Suttles and Lane 1990). During the spring and fall, populations of browsing animals may have congregated in river basin and lake margin environments as a result of the seasonal increase of herbaceous growth. In marshy habitats, resident mammals included raccoon (Procyon lotor), mink (Mustela vison), otter (Lutra canadensis), beaver (Castor canadensis), and muskrat (Ondatra zibethica) (Campbell 1981:42). APPENDIX C Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report C-3 C.1.3 Aquatic Microenvironments Lake Washington, the Sammamish and Cedar rivers, tributary creeks, and their adjacent aquatic environments supported a complex of freshwater resources. Although the drainages provided habitat for a variety of freshwater fish, the most important species exploited by prehistoric peoples were anadromous fish. Anadromous fish spawn in freshwater rivers, where they are seasonally concentrated and can therefore be efficiently harvested. Important anadromous fish include coho (Oncorhynchus kisutch), sockeye (Oncorhynchus nerka), chum (Oncorhynchus keta), pink (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha), and chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tschawytscha), as well as cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarki), steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), Dolly Varden (Salvelinus malma), and euchalon (Thaleichthys pacificus) (Campbell 1981; Thompson 1978). The relative importance of each species and the exact timing of the different runs are specific to individual drainages, which promoted the development of scheduled fishing seasons. Historically, there was a population of kokanee (a landlocked form of sockeye) distributed throughout Lake Washington and the Sammamish River drainage (Suttles and Lane 1990:489). Since the early 1900s, the kokanee populations have severely declined in abundance and distribution; they are currently limited to the Cedar River (Walsh Lake drainage) and Lake Sammamish drainages, and the Sammamish River and its tributaries (Berge and Higgins 2003). Other freshwater fish included rainbow trout (a landlocked form of steelhead) and suckers (Suttles and Lane 1990:489). Other important aquatic resources included animals such as the river otter (Lutra sp.) and as many as 20 species of waterfowl (Suttles and Lane 1990:489). C.2 Cultural Sequence This section presents an overview of the area’s prehistoric chronology, followed by a summary of the ethnographic period. This section also summarizes the historical background of the area, with an emphasis on the dominant economies and railroad development in the region. C.2.1 The Prehistoric Period Researchers have created several chronological sequences that describe the timing and nature of cultural change in the Pacific Northwest. Table C-1 shows a regional chronology for the Pacific Northwest coast, based on the work of Ames and Maschner (1999), which organizes prehistoric occupation into five developmental periods. Ames and Maschner's model suggests a shift from small groups relying on generalized hunting and gathering to larger groups with increasing social complexity and specialized reliance on aquatic resources. A synthesis of Ames and Maschner's (1999) chronological sequence is summarized below. Table C-1: A Regional Chronology of the Pacific Northwest Coast (Adapted from Ames and Maschner 1999) Dates* Period Land Use Settlement Subsistence Technology 14,000 BC to 10,500 BC** Paleoindian Generalized marine, shoreline, and/or terrestrial Short-term use pit houses and shelters Generalized marine, shoreline, and/or terrestrial resources Stone; bone, antler, and perishable materials likely 10,500 BC to 4,400 BC Archaic Generalized shoreline, marine, and terrestrial Short-term use pit houses and shelters Generalized shoreline, marine, and terrestrial resources Stone; some bone and antler; other perishable materials likely APPENDIX C Renton Nickel Improvement Project C-4 Cultural Resources Discipline Report Table C-1: A Regional Chronology of the Pacific Northwest Coast (Adapted from Ames and Maschner 1999) Dates* Period Land Use Settlement Subsistence Technology 4,400 BC to 1,800 BC Early Pacific Shoreline, marine, and terrestrial Increased sedentism in seasonal villages Increased focus on shoreline resources, such as shellfish, and expanded use of marine resources.

Extensive food storage. Tools made from bone, antler, and perishable materials; very little stone *Based on calibrated radiocarbon dates. **No sites in the Pacific Northwest have been indisputably dated before about 11,000 BC. Paleoindian (14,000 BC to 10,500 BC) The Paleoindian period includes the earliest evidence of the movement of peoples from eastern Siberia onto the North American continent. Sites are small and rarely located, with tool assemblages dominated by basalt cobble choppers, flaked scrapers, and sometimes exquisitely crafted fluted, lanceolate Clovis projectile points. These artifacts suggest a highly mobile and opportunistic culture adapted to the rapidly changing environments and ocean levels that followed the retreat of the glacial ice cap. Archaic (10,500 BC to 4,400 BC) The lack of evidence providing information on this period is partly the result of continued tectonic activity and fluctuation of ocean levels. Archaic period sites in the Pacific Northwest, including Cedar River Outlet Channel (45KI125), tend to consist of surface scatters with shallow buried components. Temporally diagnostic lithic tools provide the only reference points, since little organic material survives. Large, bifacial leaf-shaped artifacts dating from 7,000 BC to 4,300 BC dominate artifact assemblages (known as Olcott) of this period. Subsistence strategies during this period included flexible technologies and broad skill sets applied to the exploitation of near-shore, intertidal, and terrestrial resources. The archaeological record suggests that populations were small, mobile, and had not developed technologies to store food. APPENDIX C Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report C-5 Pacific (4,400 BC to ca. AD 1775) The Pacific period can be divided into Early, Middle, and Late periods, terminating around AD 1775 when the first Europeans introduced the smallpox virus, which created an epidemic due to lack of Native American immunity to the virus. In general, hunter-gatherer cultures increased in complexity during this period, with intensified use of specialized resources, settlement in permanent village sites, and development of social stratifications. Early Pacific (4,400 BC to 1,800 BC) Also described as the Cascade Phase (Suttles and Lane 1990), this phase includes the first clear indication of the use of specialized resources, such as camas and shellfish. The Early Pacific Phase is characterized by an overall increase in food production with a focus on intertidal resources, as illustrated by numerous shell midden sites. These sites also indicate an increase in sedentism. Middle Pacific (1,800 BC to AD 200/500) A few coastal Washington sites characterize the Middle Pacific and include large shell middens, remains of large rectangular cedar plank houses, and substantial canoes. The tool assemblages at Middle Pacific Phase sites reveal an increase in complexity and an array of tools manufactured from antler and bone. Subsistence strategies included an intensification of fishing technologies and a growing reliance on food storage. Late Pacific (AD 200/500 to ca. AD 1775) Sites dating to the Late Pacific are more common and have been studied more intensively. Consequently, this period is better understood than the previous periods. For example, the well- preserved Ozette site consists of large cedar plank houses with numerous ceremonial, artistic, and utilitarian artifacts. Items made of bone, antler, and wood largely replaced chipped stone tools. Specific seasonal resources, such as salmon and root crops, were used intensively, supplemented by both terrestrial and marine resources. C.2.2 The Ethnographic Period (ca. AD 1775 to ca. AD 1885) The Renton Nickel Improvement Project APE is within the aboriginal territory of the Duwamish (Spier 1936:34), who occupied a network of villages consisting of large plank houses and short- term campsites on Elliott Bay, Lake Washington, Lake Union, Salmon Bay, and on the Duwamish, Green (formerly White), Black, and Cedar rivers. Anthropologists characterize their language as Southern Lushootseed, a dialect of Southern Coast Salish. The Duwamish thought of the Duwamish, Black, and Cedar Rivers as one waterway called t-hw-duw, "going inside." The people living along this river were known as the duw-AHBSH ("inside people"), and then later by Euro- American settlers as Duwamish (CH2M Hill 2001). The Duwamish consisted of a number of bands, including the TAHB-tah-byook (or Hah-tshu absh) living on the shores of Lake Washington and the Sammamish (stslapa'bc) who occupied much of the area along the river and lake that bears their name (Daily 2003; Swanton 1952). As with other groups in the southern Puget Sound region, characteristics of this Salish-speaking culture included an economy based on salmon as a staple, a seasonal settlement pattern that utilized permanent winter houses located at prominent resource areas, and a society interconnected through kinship obligations and economic dependence (Haeberlin and Gunther 1930; Miss and Campbell 1991; Smith 1941). During spring, summer, and fall, the villagers dispersed into small family groups to hunt, fish, and gather plant foods for immediate consumption APPENDIX C Renton Nickel Improvement Project C-6 Cultural Resources Discipline Report and storage for the following winter. Temporary settlements were systematically shifted among different microenvironments as various resources became abundant or available in particular locations. During the winter, the groups returned to extended family villages that were used for many consecutive years. Few subsistence activities were carried out during the winter rainy season and most people stayed indoors or near the village, except for occasional hunting forays in the nearby uplands (Suttles and Lane 1990). The Duwamish relied primarily on salmon, which was abundant in the Sound throughout the seasons. Highly elaborated methods (e.g., the large tripod fish trap, nets, and spearing) were used when the salmon traveled up freshwater streams to spawn, especially during spring and fall (Smith 1940b:4). The Duwamish also harvested other marine fishes (trout, flounder, and cod), a variety of freshwater, non-salmonid species (chub, bass, and perch), and shellfish (clams, mussels, and crabs) from local bays, lakes, streams, and rivers. This diet was supplemented with seasonal resources including roots, berries, and other plant products, which the women collected. Men specialized in hunting blacktail deer, elk, bear, beaver, and woodchucks, as well as spearing seals and porpoises in the Sound, trapping waterfowl in nets, and hunting other birds (Haeberlin and Gunther 1930; Smith 1940a; Suttles and Lane 1990). The Duwamish occupied extended family villages associated with the Duwamish, Black, Cedar, and lower White rivers, lakes Washington and Union, and Elliott Bay. They maintained extensive relationships with other tribes and villages within the Puget Sound and Cascade foothills. The Duwamish intermarried, held potlatches, traded, and shared access to natural resources with the Snoqualmie, Suquamish, Muckleshoot, and eastern Washington tribes. The Snoqualmie reportedly occupied two villages on Mercer Island during fishing, berry picking, and potlatch seasons (CH2M Hill 2001:49). Lake Washington was called xatco, “the big lake,” and the people living around it were known collectively as xa’tcoabc, meaning “lake people” (Ballard 1929:38). The main village site of the riverine Duwamish or doo-AHBSH, after doo (“inside”) referring to the Duwamish River, Black River, and Cedar River, was comprised of two clusters of hand-hewn cedar longhouses. Sbah-bah-DEED (“little mountain”) and too-hoo-DEE-doo (“little inside river”) were located on opposite sides of the Black River, near the present-day Earlington Golf Course. Just downstream, at the confluence of the Black and Duwamish rivers was another village, Sqoa’l-qo, meaning “confluence” (Buerge 1989; Dailey 2003). The main winter village of the Skah-TELB- shahbsh, or “Skah-TELB people,” was located at the opposite end of the study area, around the confluence of Cedar River and the Lake Washington outlet. Talbot Creek was said to divide this group from the Duwamish. One of three, possibly four, longhouse sites (not all may have been occupied at the same time), Skah-TELBSH was located just west of present-day Renton High School. This site derived its name from the Skai-TAW, a supernatural being with very long hair who lived at the bottom of the Black River (Dailey 2003). Anyone wishing to acquire wealth would wash himself, fast for five days, and dive to the bottom of the pool to meet with the Skai-TAW. This mythological being was also symbolic of the river’s capacity to sustain life, since salmon congregated in its deep pools during their migrations (Buerge 1989:14-15). Twhahb-KO (“murky water”) was another site, located at the Black and Cedar river confluence, while Spah-DEL-gwelh (“lots of dust on the riverside”) was situated further up the Cedar River. Another house site belonging possibly to the Skah-TELB-shahbsh was located along the lakeshore at Suh-TEE-cheeb (“place where one wades”), in present-day Bryn Mawr. Spanish explorers first visited the Northwest Coast in 1774 and claimed the territory for Spain. British explorer James Cook charted the coastline in 1778, but Spain was the first to establish a European settlement, which it did at Neah Bay, on the northwest tip of the Olympic Peninsula in 1792. That same year, Royal Navy Captain George Vancouver and Lieutenant Peter Puget first explored the Puget Sound area. Native people they encountered possessed metal acquired through trade and seemed to have already experienced a smallpox epidemic. Within the next 100 APPENDIX C Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report C-7 years, native populations would plummet due to repeated outbreaks of introduced diseases such as smallpox, malaria, measles, influenza, dysentery, whooping cough, typhus, and typhoid fever (Boyd 1990; Suttles and Lane 1990). Depopulation destabilized many Puget Sound communities as some villages were abandoned entirely and survivors concentrated in the remaining settlements. Violence between Puget Sound groups increased as they attempted to rebuild their numbers through the capture of women and children (CH2M Hill 2001). By 1833, the Hudson’s Bay Company (HBC) established an agricultural settlement, Fort Nisqually, near the mouth of the Nisqually River, approximately 27 miles southwest of Tukwila (Stilson 1991). Charles Wilkes led an American exploration party farther into the surrounding areas in 1841. The HBC stimulated development in the region that attracted explorers, fur traders, and their associates. However, it wasn’t until the late 1840s when the shift from British to American jurisdiction and the passage of the Donation Land Act of 1850 provided the first real stimulus to Euro-American settlement. Washington Territory's first governor, Isaac Stevens, systematically established treaties with tribes in an effort to open additional land for settlement by non-natives. In 1855, members of the Duwamish, Sammamish, and neighboring Puget Sound tribes signed the Treaty of Point Elliott, which provided for the removal of tribal members to reservations. By the winter of 1855, frustration over white settlement, dispossession, epidemic diseases, and government delays led to the Puget Sound Indian War of 1855 to 1856. At the conclusion of the war, the Duwamish peoples dispersed; some remained near their traditional lands and others moved to the Tulalip, Port Madison, and Muckleshoot Indian Reservations (CH2M Hill 2001). Tribal lands and fishing rights eroded through the late 1800s and 1900s, culminating in the late 1900s in a series of lawsuits and court cases that upheld certain treaty rights (Marino 1990; Ruby and Brown 1992). Today, the Muckleshoot Tribal fishermen have inherited the Duwamish fishing rights along the Duwamish and Cedar rivers and have re-established sacred places in the area (CH2M Hill 2001). The Duwamish Indian Tribe petitioned for federal recognition in 1979. In 2001, the federal government rejected the petition, reversing the decision of the previous administration to recognize the tribe (Castro 2001). At present, a number of Duwamish are enrolled with the Muckleshoot and Suquamish tribes. Many more live in and around the greater Seattle area. The Duwamish Indian community members continue to pursue recognition, build their community, and maintain their traditions (Ruby and Brown 1992). Ethnographic Place Names Waterman (ca.1920) and Dailey (2003) identify 10 Duwamish ethnographic place names within one mile of the study area (Table C-2). These names describe identifiable physical locations on the landform, places of mythological significance, and village sites.

Certain named landforms may or may not have associated archaeological sites, but continue to hold cultural value for the Duwamish and Muckleshoot tribes (Carter 1997; Waterman ca.1920). C.2.3 The Historic Period While Europeans, Japanese, and Chinese made occasional explorations along the Northwest Coast as early as the sixteenth century, extensive contact did not begin until the 1780s, when English and American trade along the coast developed rapidly. The first Euro-Americans to arrive in King County were early nineteenth century explorers, fur traders, and their associates. Royal Navy Captain George Vancouver and Lieutenant Peter Puget first explored southern Puget Sound in 1792. This early exploration ultimately led to the establishment of the Hudson’s Bay Company (HBC) and Fort Nisqually in southern Puget Sound in 1833. The HBC stimulated development in the region; indeed, much early settlement was restricted to the immediate vicinity of Fort Nisqually, near what is now DuPont, in Pierce County. Long before the Indian tribes of western Washington had direct encounters with Europeans, native peoples felt the effects of the European presence in North America. The horse reached the interior plateau sometime in the mid-eighteenth century, and horses likely appeared west of the Cascade Range shortly thereafter. Indians living on the coast, around Puget Sound, and in the lower Columbia Valley made limited use of horses. For inland groups, the horse provided an important new means of transportation. Europeans also introduced new diseases; Lewis and Clark saw evidence that a smallpox epidemic had swept through the lower Columbia region sometime in the 1780s. Furthermore, European settlers brought articles of clothing, kettles and pots, firearms, and trade beads. The establishment of fur trade companies accelerated the spread of these goods throughout the region. In the 1820s, the HBC held a monopoly on the fur trade that would last more than two decades. The HBC developed a trading network that extended throughout the Columbia drainage. The center of this network was the HBC regional headquarters at Fort Vancouver, established in 1825 along the north bank of the Columbia River, near the mouth of the Willamette River. During the reign of the HBC, trade goods were imported to and manufactured at Fort Vancouver, while Fort Nisqually served as an important secondary distribution center. However, the fur trade in the Puget Sound area generally proved disappointing because the mild winters did not produce the best pelts. The HBC valued the area primarily as a buffer for keeping American competitors out of the interior to the east and north (Irwin 1994:4; McClelland 1953:8). APPENDIX C Renton Nickel Improvement Project C-10 Cultural Resources Discipline Report The shift from British to American jurisdiction in the late 1840s and the passage of the Donation Land Act of 1850 provided the first real stimulus to Euro-American settlement in the Pacific Northwest.10 The first sustained Euro-American settlement in King County began in 1851, when the Collins, Van Asselt, and Maple families homesteaded land at the present site of Sea-Tac International Airport and southward along the Duwamish River toward present-day Tukwila. Later that year, the Denny, Terr, Boren, and Bell families settled at Alki Point in West Seattle but relocated to the east shore of Elliott Bay after spending their first winter on the wet, windy point. Local Development During the second half of the nineteenth century, federal homestead legislation contributed to a steadily increasing population in the region. In 1853, the U.S. Census reported 170 King County residents (excluding Indians) and 111 registered (male) voters. Seven years later, the population of King County had nearly doubled to 300. The county’s population grew significantly through the decades: 2,100 in 1870; 7,000 in 1880; 63,000 in 1890; and 110,000 in 1900 (History Link 2000). This tremendous increase in population can largely be attributed to government-subsidized land grants enabled by the 1862 Homestead Act and its subsequent revisions. Capitalizing on the region’s natural resources, early settlers made their livelihoods by farming, mining, and logging. Furthermore, the discovery of coal seams east of Lake Washington resulted in regular crossings of coal barges, and coal barge workers were known to use “. . . settler’s homesteads . . . as handy stopping places where meals, lodging, and supplies could be obtained while native crews visited nearby kin” (Buerge 1989:24). Coal Mining and Logging The first mining efforts in the Puget Sound region began in the summer of 1869. A group led by one of Seattle’s founding fathers, Arthur A. Denny, started a prospecting venture within the Snoqualmie River’s Middle Fork drainage. They located iron ore as early as 1872, and formed the Denny Iron Mines Company in 1882 (Hollenbeck 1987). Coal mining was a major catalyst in the growth of King County. The area's larger coal companies, including the Black Diamond, Newcastle, and Pacific Coast Coal companies, attracted a variety of laborers to the area. In the late 1800s, most coal workers were of northern European descent, including Welsh, Scottish, English, Irish, Norwegian, Swedish, and Finnish laborers. By the 1880s, mines employed Chinese workers, and African American laborers soon joined the workforce as Newcastle mine strikebreakers, earning up to 20 percent less than white miners. Despite these inequities, many African Americans continued to work at the mines even after resolution of the labor disputes (Tobin et al. 1993). It was not unusual for children to work in the coal mines in lieu of attending school. According to Morda C. Slauson, author of One Hundred Years on the Cedar: Everyone, particularly boys, started work at an early age. Frank Johnson, now deceased, who lived his last years on a small farm near Spring Lake, started work in the mine when he was 12 years old. He got 75 cents for 12 hours work, turning a homemade fan to force air into the tunnels (1967:6). 10 This inducement to Northwestern settlement required no purchase and granted large parcels of land to "certain white settlers and Indians of mixed blood" who emigrated to Oregon between December 1850 and December 1853 and agreed to stay on the land for four years. APPENDIX C Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report C-11 Coal mining proved to be profitable for many years, but it declined sharply in the second half of the twentieth century. In 1975, the last underground mine in Washington State, Palmer Coking Coal Company’s Rogers No. 3 near Ravensdale, ceased operations. Hindered by costs associated with increased federal and state safety regulations, as well as a reduced market for coal, small local mines ceased to be profitable (Slauson 1976:50-52). Logging in King County began as early as 1872 and peaked around 1910. Initially, logging was associated with mining. Generally, it was small in scale and tied to specific mining claims and the access to those claims. During the first several decades, short rail spurs were built into the gentle river/stream bottoms to access some of the largest-diameter, highest volume stands in each drainage (Hollenbeck 1987). Loggers and settlers cleared vast tracts of land for homes and farms, an oftentimes arduous task. Settlers often burned down trees by boring holes in the trunks and lighting a fire, which weakened the tree enough that it fell. The earliest logging in the Sammamish River Valley was associated with clearing land. Settlers near the Sammamish River used oxen to drag logs to the river. From there, logs floated to Lake Washington where workers assembled them into rafts using a winch- and-anchor system. Capitalizing on what appeared to be an endless timber supply, logging camps developed around the region, attracting additional settlers, mills, and spawning the development of towns north and east of Lake Washington (Historic Resources Survey, City of Bothell, Washington:15). Railroad logging continued during the 1930s and 1940s. By the 1970s, harvesting focused on the upslope areas on both sides of the Sammamish River. In the more recent past, the region supported sawmills, which were major contributors to the economy of the area and its surrounding environs, but their prominence has since declined (Hollenbeck 1987). Tukwila A member of a Hudson’s Bay party exploring Puget Sound in 1827 made the first recorded observation of the Duwamish River, but it wasn’t until the 1830s when the Hudson’s Bay Company District Manager ventured up the river to look for a favorable site for a support station (Reinartz 1991:4). A subject of debate for years, most historians agree that by the time Denny’s party arrived at Alki, the Collins party had already established themselves on the Duwamish River as the first Euro-American settlers in what would later become King County (Reinartz 1991:8) By the summer of 1853, numerous settlements lied outside the newly established Seattle Township, including several along the Black River. Until the construction of the local railroad line in the 1870s, travel in the Duwamish and White river valleys was by water, Indian trail, or the rough wagon roads. The Territorial Legislature passed resolutions in 1854 calling for the construction of roads in King County, but it wasn’t until after the Indian War of 1855 to 1856 that an established road, the Military Road, was built through King County, along the Duwamish River. The new road facilitated transportation within the Duwamish Valley; mill workers could get to their jobs upriver and farmers could cart their crops into Seattle. Throughout the later decades of the nineteenth century, settlers were drawn to the rich river-bottom soil of the valley, which was excellent for growing hops, hay, fruit, and vegetables. In 1902, the Seattle-Tacoma Interurban Railway was built through the valley and operated until 1928. The electric train effectively “suburbanized” the area by enabling passengers to commute between their homes in the country and their jobs in the city. As the automobile became more popular and usable due to new roads, the railway system declined. Transportation along the waterways was also undergoing change. Following a major flood in 1906, the Duwamish River was dredged and straightened in stages lasting several years. The White River was diverted from its original course ten miles to the south, and the Green River now filled the channel. APPENDIX C Renton Nickel Improvement Project C-12 Cultural Resources Discipline Report In June 1908, Tukwila became an incorporated city. Although locals had already used the name for years to describe their community, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer made it official by declaring “Tukwila” the winner of their contest to “Name the New Town” (Stein 1999). As transportation corridors expanded throughout south King County, Tukwila solidified itself as a central hub. City planners, however, feared that the rapid growth of Boeing and other industries during World War II might over-industrialize the area. They chose to focus on commercial businesses to sustain growth rather than on industry. When planning started in the 1960s for two new highways (I-405 and I-5), city planners realized the potential of the crossroads and began planning a new shopping mall for Tukwila. On July 31, 1968, Southcenter Mall opened with 116 stores built on 30 acres. In recent years, the City of Tukwila has annexed many smaller nearby communities such as Riverton, Allentown, Thorndyke, and Foster. The City has sought these annexations for varying political reasons (e.g., increased protection from crime, land disputes with the County, and closer governance). By the end of the twentieth century, Tukwila’s population totaled nearly 20,000 people. With industry to the north, a major international airport to the west, and a wide variety of businesses within and without, Tukwila continues to grow. Renton Euro-Americans began to settle outside the newly established Seattle Township shortly after Congress formed the Washington Territory in 1853. By this time, the Denny party had moved from their original settlement at Alki to the east shore of Elliott Bay. That same year, Henry Tobin and three other settlers arrived in the area known today as Renton and established the short-lived Duwamish Coal Company. In 1854, Tobin helped build a small sawmill along the Black River, in close proximity to several Duwamish villages (Slauson 1976). The mill was destroyed during the Puget Sound Indian War of 1855 to 1856 and two of Tobin’s business partners were killed; the third eventually left the region and abandoned his mining claims. Tobin died of poor health in 1856, leaving the patent of his claim to his widow, Diana. That same year, she married her neighbor, Erasmus Smithers. After combining the two claims, the couple’s property comprised 480 acres, which included much of present downtown Renton (and all of today’s Renton Shopping Center). Smithers prospered after establishing a large dairy farm that he eventually sold. The farm continued to operate until 1953 when Robert Edwards bought it and opened the Renton Shopping Center in 1960. In 1862 coal seams were discovered near Issaquah Creek, south of Lake Sammamish. Three years later, new seams were discovered in the hills east of Lake Washington, dramatically increasing the amount of traffic along waterways, including the Black River, to extract and transport the coal to Puget Sound. Erasmus Smithers discovered coal along a streambed in 1873, shortly after the Northern Pacific Railroad had selected Tacoma rather than Seattle as the terminus of the transcontinental route. Local promoters organized the Seattle and Walla Walla Railroad and Transportation Company (S&WW) and planned a route around the southern end of Lake Washington, over Snoqualmie Pass, to Walla Walla, where hopefully another line (as of yet not built) would connect it to the east (Armbruster 1999). To ease the burden of financing the railroad, backers decided to build the line in stages and use the railroad to transport local timber and coal. Recognizing a prosperous future, Captain William Renton, Erasmus Smithers, and two others organized the Renton Coal Company in 1874, the first of many coal operations that would fuel growth in the area. Later that year, another coal seam was uncovered and the Talbot Company was established. Within a year, the Black River area was transformed from a rural farming community into an active mining center. Smithers, in association with his business partners, filed a plat with the county auditor in Seattle and named the town in honor of its financial patron. In February 1877, Renton became the first town connected to Seattle by a narrow-gauge railroad track (Robertson 1995:265). In 1880, the Columbia and Puget Sound Railroad (C&PS) took over APPENDIX C Renton Nickel Improvement Project Cultural Resources Discipline Report C-13 the S&WW line and began extending the rail up the Cedar River to take advantage of the large coal deposits. After the Northern Pacific Railroad line to Tacoma was completed in 1883, immigration into Washington Territory increased dramatically. Improvements in transportation fueled growth and by 1900 Renton’s population had reached 1,176, a nearly four-fold increase in 10 years. The town was incorporated in 1901, the same year a new local industry was established: the Renton Clay Works began producing brick from the shale overlying the coal seams along the Cedar River. By 1910, the Chicago, Milwaukee, and St. Paul Railroad provided Renton with a second transcontinental rail connection and North Renton had been annexed by the town. Besides the coal mine and the brick factory, Renton also became the site of a rail car manufacturing company, Pacific Car and Foundry (PACCAR), which served expanding rail networks in the United States, Alaska, and China. Other industries included a bottle factory, an ice cream plant, a plant that produced coal briquettes, two lumber companies, and a shingle mill (Buerge 1989:39). Two notable events marked 1916: the canal between Lake Washington and Elliott Bay opened and William Boeing took his newly constructed float plane for its maiden flight over Lake Union (Buerge 1989:43). Renton had become the commercial center of the region south and east of Lake Washington, but the economy suffered a sharp decline following World War I. Competition with companies offering higher-grade coal from the Rocky Mountains and new energy sources such as petroleum and hydroelectricity signaled the demise of the local coal industry. The market for paving brick dwindled as automobile use changed the way roads were built. Fewer jobs and lower wages after World War I caused a massive strike at the mines that lasted until 1923 when the remaining workers finally agreed to the decrease in pay (Buerge 1989:63). Many companies endured. PACCAR began fabricating bridge spans from structural steel. Automobile traffic was on the rise in Renton with the development of the Sunset Highway. Camps and small towns emerged along the route as it was built from Seattle, around the south end of Lake Washington, and on to Snoqualmie Pass. This increase in automobile travel led to a decline in rail passenger service. When the water level of Lake Washington was lowered, new land was created along the north end of Renton. A 2,300-foot, dirt-and-sand runway was built on the flats below Bryn Mawr in 1922. By 1929, Northwest Air Services expanded their operations from Boeing Field on the Duwamish River to the new runway (Buerge 1989:68). This was the beginning of a new era in development; as the federal and state New Deal programs materialized, the economy began to improve. In the 1920s the federal government contracted local companies and funded huge projects like the Grand Coulee Dam and the Lake Washington Floating Bridge, which opened in 1940. When World War II began in Europe, the Boeing Airplane Company stepped up production and began building bombers for Great Britain in its second plant along the Duwamish River. World War II stimulated the local economy, but by this time, Renton’s growth was increasing at a rate that planners found difficult to accommodate. Housing and utility issues were addressed when federal funds provided $4 million for housing and $300,000 for street improvements. The water and sewer systems were upgraded and expanded, and the school district’s vocational education program received $250,000 worth of machine equipment (Buerge 1989:78-79). The growing construction, retail sales, and service industries quickly offset a brief post-war economic slump at the manufacturing plants, but these factories continued to grow in later years. By the 1950s, Renton had become one of the most important manufacturing companies in the state. In 1954, Boeing’s Seattle and Renton plants employed 35,000 workers (Buerge 1989:82).. Transportation projects continued to handle the region’s growing population; communities around Renton were linked after construction of Highway 405 was completed in the early 1960s. Massive layoffs at Boeing in the early 1970s had a significant impact on the local economy, but Renton’s APPENDIX C Renton Nickel Improvement Project C-14 Cultural Resources Discipline Report accessibility through major highway, air, and rail connections continued to attract various manufacturing firms (Buerge 1989:85). Rapid development called for a closer examination of environmental issues such as the protection of wetlands and the restoration of wildlife habitats. Within the past few decades, city planners have adopted comprehensive plans that address growth while also preserving the character of its neighborhoods. As Renton’s economy moved into the realm of high-tech industry in the 1990s, the city solidified its status as an independent economic center in the Puget Sound area.

PalmawEngineer:Date Of Construction:1939-1942Property appears to meet criteria for the National Register of Historic Places:YesProperty is located in a potential historic district (National and/or local):NoThe Renton Fire Station was designed by Ivan M. Palmaw, a Russian graduate of the University of Washington. Palmaw's architecture career began in Saint Petersburg as a student of his uncle, Alexander Kronoff, the last imperial architect of Russia. Palmaw, born Ivan Michael Palov, served in the Russian Army in World War I, but was forced to flee after the Revolution due to his family's close ties with Russian royalty. He lived in the Black Sea area for several years, where he fought with other exiles, and the family name was changed during this time by German officials. In 1920 he joined his uncle, in exile in Shanghai, where he returned to architecture. In 1923, he attempted to enter the Barbarzon in France, a prestigious architecture school, but was denied a visa. He later traveled to Seattle, where he received his degree from the University of Washington in 1929. Palmaw designed several private residences in the Blue Ridge community, as well as the Saint Nicolas and Saint Spiridon, two Byzantine-style Russian Orthodox churches in Seattle. Built between 1939 and 1942 by Works Progress Administration, the architect chose the Art Deco style because of his admiration for it, despite its waning popularity at the time. Renton first organized a volunteer fire department in 1903, and this group became an official division of the city in 1908. A frame structure was replaced with a brick structure in 1923, which also served as city hall. By the early 1930s, the area was growing so rapidly that a larger department was necessary; however, the economic downturn created by the Depression left the city unable to garner the funds necessary to construct a new facility. The federal government agreed to fund the construction in 1939, in part due to the population boom that was predicted surrounding the Boeing plant. The Renton Fire Station appears to be eligible for the National Register of Historic Places under Criterion C because it embodies distinctive characteristics of the Art Deco style and retains integrity of location, design, workmanship, materials, feeling and association. The building was symmetrically designed with rounded front corners in the Art Deco style. The building was built at an angle to its lot, allowing a view of multiple faces simultaneously, which adds to the style's preference for smooth lines in relation to the surrounding landscape. Alterations to the original design are limited to the truck bay doors, which were replaced with roll-up steel doors. The remaining exterior and interior elements are unchanged. The Renton Fire Station is currently on the Washington State Register.Statement of SignificanceJayne Wissel and William Collins, Renton Fire Station National Register of Historic Places Nomination Form, July 4, 1978.Description of Physical AppearanceThis former fire station built in the Art Deco style is now historical museum. The building core square is flanked by protruding squares with rounded corners. The taller center structure is divided into three sets of recessed tall double doors. The cornice forms a decorative banding across the top. The entrances above the three double doors are scalloped. The two side structures have a wave motif at the cornice and horizontal banding across the front, pairs of vertical windows with horizontal muntins and a center single door with a decorative lite in the top half. A flag is centered on top of the center building, behind which is a tower.Major BibliographicReferencesStudy Unit OtherRoof TypeBuilder:Property potentially contributes to a historic district (National and/or local):Concrete - PouredUnknownConcrete - PouredFlat with EavesPage 2 of 2Printed on 12/13/2005 8:42:10 AM View ofcamera facing southtaken3/23/2005Photography Neg.
