City Life. It's there for the taking. Imagine a residential and commercial hub that brings new life into Olympia's downtown! Olympia has an opportunity to have a new mixed-use development that many of you may be reading about in The Olympian. It's called Larida Passage, and Triway Enterprises is proposing to rezone 2.34 acres across from Bayview Market to allow for high-end residential condominiums and retail and office space. Pearlwater at Larida Passage will breathe fresh air into living, working and playing in Washington's Capitol. Triway Enterprises envisions building 141 condominiums that will enjoy views of Capital Lake and Budd Inlet. Structured parking will serve the development, Heritage Park, Percival Landing and the western business district. On the street level, pedestrians will enjoy shops, a pedestrian plaza from 4th to 5th Avenues and a trail connection along the Deschutes Waterway. The building rendering has been created by Gail Merth, Senior Architect at BCRA, and WOW, what a stunning, first-class building design! Visualize walking across the beautiful Friendship Bridge and into a stylish and contemporary active street life into the city center. We want our City to flourish, and we know that housing is the one important component that can deliver a successful business climate for our unique, local businesses, many of whom struggle in the present environment. Triway is excited by what this can mean for our historic downtown, local businesses, and the cultural pulse of the Capitol. We encourage all of you to contact your City Council members at citycouncil@ci.olympia.wa.us to let them know that you support creating a viable downtown with housing opportunities for everyone. Write a letter of support to The Olympian at www.theolympian.com/forms/submitletter, as well. It takes just a minute of your time. We know that all of you love and care about our downtown. Let's move this community forward! Tell the Council you support the Comprehensive Plan Amendment and Re-zone to expand the Urban Waterfront Housing Zone that will make Pearlwater at Larida Passage a reality. |
