BOLA's work on the
Windham Apartments began with the preparation of
National Register and City of Seattle Landmark
Nominations, and Federal Investment Tax Credit
Certification Application for the developer/owner.
Constructed in 1925, the Windham Apartments is an
excellent and intact example of the efficiency apartment
building type from Seattle's growth period of the 1920s.
The current scope is rehabilitation of the building for
affordable housing.
BOLA's design scope for the 37,300 sq. ft. building
included documentation and evaluation of the building,
including each of the 59 efficiency apartments;
technical restoration specifications; and new kitchen
designs. The units were upgraded with refinishing of
interior plaster walls and wood floor refinishing; and
the building was enhanced with lobby and window
rehabilitation; an elevator upgrade,
mechanical/electrical improvements; and exterior masonry
and terra cotta cleaning and restoration. All work is
being done in compliance with the Secretary of the
Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation.
