Clark Barnes designed the two midrise buildings.
Plans by the Behar Company for an apartment project dubbed Edmonds Green have been brewing for about two decades.
It’s part of a larger mixed-use property just east of state Route 99 (aka Edmonds Village). There, at 7212 220th St. S.W., architect Clark Barnes has designed two midrise buildings with 411 units. Exxel Pacific still seems to be attached as the builder.
Behar, founded by the late Dale Behar, is based in Seattle. Over in New York, news came via the Commercial Observer this week that Edmonds Green has secured a $131.9 million construction loan from Madison Realty Partners and Red Cove Capital. Late last month, Snohomish County recorded a $97.5 million loan. Other funding may have been separately provided. Separate media reports from New York say Red Cove has contributed $34.4 million to the effort.
And more, Seattle shop HB Management is now in a joint venture with Behar, says the Observer.
On about 4 acres, the project is to replace the shuttered Family Fun Park (formerly Funtasia.) That’s set back east from Highway 99, near the WinCo Foods and Lynnwood Honda dealership. The Interurban Trail runs along its east side.
On a sloping site, the buildings will rise from six to eight stories. About 284 parking stalls are planned — 46 surface, and 238 partly structured and/or below grade. Some spaces will have EV charging. Residential bike parking is to have around 306 stalls.
Construction is to be Type I-A concrete for the lower levels, with Type V-A wood construction above. Eighty-two of the apartments are to be affordable, under the city’s multifamily property exemption tax program. Apartments look to run from studios to three-beds, with sizes ranging from 448 to 1,343 square feet.
About 10,146 square feet of retail space is proposed. No broker is obviously representing that yet.
Clark Barnes said on Facebook this spring, “This project presents an opportunity to revitalize an underused site while creating a connected, walkable community.” The team also includes Fora, landscape architect; KPFF, civil engineer; Coughlin Porter Lundeen, structural engineer; AESI, geotechnical engineer; TENW, traffic engineer; Pacific Coast Surveys, surveyor; Rushing, MEP; A3 Acoustics; and 4EA Building Science, envelope.
Behar also owns the three west parcels facing Highway 99, which are home to Boiling Point, Woods Coffee and Harbor Freight. Those are also part of the 10-acre Edmonds Village. A new self-storage facility has also been contemplated there.
