Logan 6 Narrative
Dear Alex
Thank you for your assistance with the Site Plan Review application process. As part of the submittal
requirements I offer the following:
The current parcel located at 302 Logan Avenue N. is mostly vacant with grass cover, the exceptions include
a billboard sign located at the south end of the property and a few miscellaneous utility boxes. An abandoned
railroad ROW including tracks appears to be the historical past use of the property, now completely removed and
replaced with a sandy silty fill material to a depth of 9ft. to 10ft. The parcel is virtually flat, vacant, and covered in
grasses with no indications of wetlands or water bodies of any nature. The site is well drained with infiltration only
restricted by a seasonly fluctuating water table well below grade surface. Adjacent property use to the north and
west include Renton Memorial Stadium and Boeing aircraft plant and the Cedar River Waterway and Lake
Washington beyond. Contiguous and east of the parcel are two industrial buildings, a dental laboratory and office
building, and a shipping warehouse, beyond lies single family residential neighborhoods. There are extensive
pedestrian ways and trails surrounding the parcel and transit is accessible directly adjacent to the site.
City of Renton Department of Construction & Inspections documents show existing public storm water
lines, sewer, and water mains adjacent to the site. Research indicates an extension along N 4th St. will be required
as part of the development plans.
Existing zoning is currently UC-2 Urban Center 2. Adjacent zoning includes R10 And R8 Commercial.
The proposed development will provide one level of below building parking and one partial level of near
grade parking with split access from N 3rd St. and N 4th St. 108 structured parking stalls are proposed with an
additional 17 surface parking stalls available on an adjacent same-ownership parcel for a total of 125 parking stalls.
Waste management and loading access is proposed from N 4th St. The proposed project consists of 6,317.25 sf of
commercial space is planned at ground floor level including office space and concierge facilities. 5 Live/work units
are also provided at the ground floor level. 5 residential levels with a total of 100 apartment units are proposed
above the commercial level within the 6 story structure. Apartments are slated to be 60% standard and 40% senior
accommodations. Roof top amenities are currently planned to take advantage of available territorial views and to
create functional open space for tenants.
Total parcel area is 45,290 sf (including Area to be dedicated to the City as ROW). Total BuildingSquare footage is
170,335 gfs. The total heights of the proposed building is 91’-4” from public sidewalk level to the top of the
proposed elevator penthouse. 62.32 % of the site will be covered by building, drives, entry plazas, stairs, pathways,
and paved courtyards.
Off-site improvements include the development of new N 3rd Ave. curb, sidewalks and gutters per City standards if
requested and connection to existing City water, and sewer systems will be accessed in N 3rd St. and existing City
storm will be accessed from Logan Ave. N.
The current projected budget is $29,000,000.00 with an estimated market value of $34,000,000.00. Approximately
8,308 CY. of excavation will be required for below grade parking and 577 CY. of fill for general landscape grading

and soil preparation for plantings. The site has been historically and is currently vacant and completely devoid of
vegetation other than grass and areas of Himalayan Blackberry.
A 20ft wide area adjacent to N 4th St. presumably will be required to be dedicated to the City as part of the N 4th
Street ROW. The dedication has been accommodated for in the development plans.
