Prior EIS, Addendum Will Do for 2200 Westlake

SEATTLE-Paul Allen’s Vulcan Inc. and Milliken Development won’t have to draft another environmental impact statement for their 975,000-sf mixed-use project at 2200 Westlake, according to a recent City decision.

The City’s Department of Design Construction and Land Use has determined that the impact of the three-tower development is already covered in Allen’s previous environmental reports: Seattle Commons/South Lake Union EIS in 1995 and the Terry Avenue Technology Court EIS in 2001. Vulcan and Milliken also have provided an addendum to the Seattle Commons/South Lake Union EIS that provides detailed information on the current proposal.

There is no agency appeal of this environmental determination. A subsequent DCLU Director’s Master Use Permit Decision regarding Design Review and SEPA Conditioning will be administratively appealable.
