Housing in Seattle's manufacturing centers possible under latest city plan

"I think this is our third or fourth actual somewhat formal review of industrial lands," Tim Burgess, who is Mayor Bruce Harrell's director of strategic initiatives, said this spring.
So it's notable that the city Office of Planning and Community Development on Thursday announced the completion of an environmental study of land use changes affecting neighborhoods from Ballard to South Park.
