Description
A first-of-its-kind space to help people who live in their vehicles is set to come to Seattle’s Interbay neighborhood.
The Low-Income Housing Institute (LIHI) announced its plan to create an RV safe space just south of the Ballard Bridge.
The 35,000-square-foot vacant space near the corner of Bertona Street and 15th Avenue will mark a first for the city of Seattle.
“The population has grown and there’s been no solution, so we think that this is the first that’s going to be significant,” said Sharon Lee, the Executive Director of LIHI.
This space will soon be the first safe space parking lot for RVs as part of LIHI's new “Salmon Bay Village.” This new space will serve up to 50 unhoused people and provide space for 10 tiny homes and 30 RVs.
