Bakhita Gardens Zoning AnalysisNew Construction – 38,369 SF Zone: DMR/R 85/656-Story, 71’-6” tall mixed-use project Urban Village: BelltownHousing for 90 Homeless Women Street Designation: 2nd Ave. – Class 12,500 SF Retail Pedestrian Street6 parking stalls Bell Street – Green St.
Site Area: 6,360 SFafter 2’ alleydedication
Existing SiteThe existing 60’x108’ lot at the corner of 2nd Avenue and Bell Street contains a 1-1/2story concrete structure housing an overnight shelter for homeless women in thebasement, a retail space at the first floor facing 2nd Avenue, and a congregateresidence for 13 women on the back half of the first floor and the partial second floor.The building was originally constructed as a print shop and parking garage in the1950’s and was converted to its current use, as housing for homeless women, in theearly 1990’s.
Neighborhood ContextThe Belltown neighborhood surrounding the property offers an assortment of buildingsbut can be roughly categorized into the following four types: Apartment Buildings,Commercial/Retail Structures, Mixed-use Commercial/Residential Structures, andopen parking lots. 2nd Avenue is a lively pedestrian block with restaurants,nightclubs, galleries, retail spaces, apartment buildings and a couple of open lots onthe block. The buildings offer an eclectic mixture of architectural styles, most of whichare 1 to 2 stories in height. Bell Street is a more passive street, as the cornerbuildings orient their use to the Avenue side. The most architecturally significantstructure near the site is the Dorothy Day House directly across the alley to the west.It is a vintage turn-of-the-century brick 3-story building with tall, glazed storefront onthe west side facing 1st Avenue.
Design Objectives
Program Objectives:The Bakhita Gardens project is a collaboration of two existing programs of theArchdiocesan Housing Authority serving homeless women. It will expand and replacethe existing services provided on the site to include interim housing for 40 women(Noel House), a congregate residence of Single-Room-Occupancy dwelling units for 50women (Rose of Lima), administrative office space for the housing programs, and aground floor retail space.
Site & Building Objectives:• Add to the retail activity and character of 2nd Avenue• Strengthen corner of 2nd Avenue and Bell Street• Contribute to the vision of the Bell Street – Green Street initiative• Create a dialogue between the new building and the vintage Dorothy Day
House across the alley to the west• Provide a safe and nurturing community for the residents of the building• Relate to the established typology of the single-lot Belltown Apartment Building• Create attractive exterior common spaces for the residents oriented toward
sunlight and the magnificent views to the west• Create a sustainable, energy efficient structure that provides a healthy
environment for all its residents and occupants.
