Good Shepherd Center Seismic Retrofit (Phase 1B)

About This Grant

Historic Seattle will conduct a seismic retrofit of the Good Shepherd Center located at 4649 Sunnyside Ave North in Wallingford. The building has been designated a Community Emergency Hub by The City of Seattle's Office of Emergency Management, however, SDCI has identified the building as a `Critical Risk` due to construction type and tenant vulnerability. This funding will allow for the precision opening of the walls and ceilings to facilitate the installation of the out-of-plane anchorages which are the connectors that tie the floor and wall framing together. This work is the highest priority identified by our engineer/architect team. This phase of the retrofit will be completed by December 30, 2022.
