TACOMA, WA-The five-story, mixed-use Albers Mill project is moving forward despite the City Council’s failure to commit to construction of an adjacent marina, wharf and walkway.

City officials have pledged to do what they can, but because they are $1 million shy of starting the project, they could not commit to construction. While developer Heritage Properties is reportedly disappointed with this action, ground is expected to break by September on the condominium and retail complex. Heritage has until Sept. 16 to complete the purchase of the property, located on the Thea Foss Waterway Downtown.

Albers Mill stands at 1821 Dock St., adjacent to the Bridge of Glass by Dale Chihuly and the Museum of Glass. The rehabbed building will also include a modern addition on the east side, which faces the water.
