Project Summary: The City of Renton, along with the Renton Housing Authority (RHA), King County Library
System, Colipitts Development, and community partners, is redeveloping the Sunset
Terrace public housing community, an approximately 15.28 -acre site within the larger
Sunset Area Community Neighborhood in northeast Renton. Redevelopment of this area
envisions Sunset Terrace as a mixed-use, mixed -income community anchored by a new
public library and a new park. Mixed-use sites will have both market rate and affordable
rental housing in multi -story, multi -family townhomes and apartments, along with
commercial and retail space. Proposed residential land includes apartments and attached
townhomes that are generally between two and four stories in height, extending to five
and six stories along SR 900, which will provide 722 total dwelling units. Proposed
commercial space would equal between 19,500-59,000 square feet, with 15,000 square
feet consisting of a newly relocated Renton Highlands Library (this use has already been
permitted and is under construction), and the rest consisting of retail or office space
depending on market needs.
Project Location: Located in northeast Renton, the Sunset Terrace community is generally bounded by
Sunset Blvd NE on the south that forms a "U-shaped" border, Glenwood Avenue NE
and NE 10th Street on the north; Harrington Avenue NE bisects the area.
Site Area: Approx. 15.28 ac
