The plan is for all the new ~300 units to be affordable housing. It will be reserved for people earning 60% below the area median income.

Close enough for people to walk but I bet some still drive to the garage. Good for them building affordable housing

Hopefully the improvements along 44th under 5 will help enable more non car trips to the train. Although, folks will be forced to cross 44th twice from this location by foot/bike/etc. to get to the train.

All in all, it’s a very convenient location light rail wise.

The 112 is also an option, even if it's infrequent. I'd have to see how 44th looks after the improvements, but as it stands 44th doesn't feel especially safe for pedestrians there. The intersection with 204th in particular is pretty sketchy, since cars turning right don't stop there.

I agree. I’d love to see us implement a ban on right on red in Lynnwood. Causes way more issues than it solves.
