LIVABLE PHINNEY

Livable Phinney is a Washington non-profit corporation that focuses on reasonable development for the Phinney Ridge neighborhood. Phinney Ridge, like the rest of Seattle, is growing and changing at a faster pace than recent years, and more development is coming. That means we need to be vigilant to ensure that new developments comply with the Land Use Code and do not impose unlawful impacts on our community... Livable Phinney was formed in 2016 when a group of Phinney Ridge residents became concerned with the potential impact of the controversial "Phinney Flats" development proposed for 6726 Greenwood Avenue North -50+ "small efficiency dwelling units" (apartments of approximately 200 square feet) and no onsite parking. Livable Phinney retained a lawyer, and appealed the decision to allow the project in early 2017. Community support for our appeal was remarkable... Livable Phinney believes the 7009 site can and should be lawfully re-developed with the setbacks from the single family..
