Book excerpt: There has been a shortage of housing across the United States that has led to the exponential increase of rent. Some of the leading challenges of building more housing is the high cost of construction and labor shortage, and as a result, has led developers to build luxury housing, almost exclusively, because it is the only type of project that financially works. When looking at the challenges, construction costs appears to be the easier challenges to combat. Through this thesis, the intent is to locate a opportunistic property that was located in an area that has scarce affordable housing. Through this process, the Mercer Mega Block became the subject site of this thesis and is being worked through design and financially to work exclusive as a site for affordable housing. Furthermore, through the process of this thesis, the focus of this project has become household of 60 percent AMI, workforce, and families. As a result of the South Lake Union's corporate centered culture, there is a lack of a sense of community that has created a neighborhood where people come to work and leave at the end of the day. This thesis has developed a design that focuses of families and workforce and takes special attention of the ground level, as a result of building high-rise affordable housing, and attempts to establish a dynamic ground level for all users to come together and be an asset to South Lake Union. Finally, a financial plan has been made for this project and has proved to be a financial viable project, which concludes this project to be a good contender to be an absolute affordable housing project that the City of Seattle can take on, instead of selling the parcels of the Mercer Mega Block.

Book excerpt: Seattle is one of the fastest growing high-tech cities in the United States. Under the Washington State Growth Management Act, there is a finite urban land supply for housing development within the designated Urban Growth Areas. In return, Seattle's housing affordability is in crisis. The city of Seattle formed the Housing Affordability and Livability Agenda (HALA) task force in 2014 and it produced 65 recommendations for how the city can facilitate the construction of 20,000 affordable housing units and 30,000 market rate housing units over the next ten years. One of the recommendations (Strategy L.1: Prioritize Use of Public Property for Affordable Housing) proposes that the city revise its existing reuse and disposition policies for surplus and underutilized publicly-owned property to prioritize these properties for the construction of affordable multifamily housing. This thesis seeks to add to existing research by examining one question: How feasible and effective would a policy be to prioritize the use of surplus and underutilized publicly-owned land for the development of affordable housing to meet HALA's growth target? Any program intended to address affordable housing concerns must be palatable, practical, and have a reasonable chance of producing positive results for all parties involved in order to succeed. This research presents a grounded theory study that uses both qualitative and quantitative measures to document the complexity of the issues associated with using publicly-owned surplus and underutilized land for affordable housing development, including comparative case studies and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) land analyses. The feasibility and effectiveness of a revised property reuse and disposition policy is established using three development scenarios (low-build, medium-build, and high-build) for existing surplus and underutilized public land based on a buildable lands analysis. The research and its subsequent analysis provide a blueprint for understanding the challenges associated with housing development on public land. The conclusion of this research is that modifications to the city's existing reuse and disposition policies would present minimal-to-no additional costs to implement and could result in the development of between 495 and 4,450 affordable housing units, or between 2.5% and 22.25% of HALA's target for affordable housing units. The achievement depends on how aggressive the policies were enforced, but it would require robust political support from the city and creative development approaches to be most effective towards the development of more affordable housing.
