Convention Place Station TOD

Convention Place Station is at the north end of the downtown Seattle transit tunnel, north of the Convention Center and west of Interstate 5. It is bounded by Ninth Avenue, Olive Way, Boren Avenue, and Pine Street. Its approximate size is two city blocks.

After extensive feasibility studies, King County Metro Transit intends to continue using the site and is investigating the potential “air rights” above the transit facilities for pedestrian- and transit-supportive development. Based on preliminary market analysis, the project is expected to be financially feasible. Development will occur in the future as the regional light rail system is expanded.

Updates about this project will be posted to this page as they become available.
