Pickle at the Palms in Interbay: The much-anticipated Pickle at the Palms pickleball facility, a significant new addition to the Interbay neighborhood, is steadily progressing through its development stages. The project, which will feature a modern three-story structure dedicated to pickleball, is gearing up for a critical design review meeting on September 4 at 5 p.m. This meeting will be open to the public and offers an opportunity for community members to provide feedback. Those interested in participating remotely can join the meeting by calling 206-207-1700 and using access code 2492 140 8488.
Project Overview and Site Details
The facility will be constructed on the site located at 3435 15th Ave W, a location previously occupied by a Brown Bear Car Wash. This site is currently being used as a temporary Low Income Housing Institute (LIHI) tiny house village. The development plans include the demolition of all existing buildings to make way for the new pickleball complex. Additionally, the project will feature parking accommodations for 53 vehicles, ensuring ample space for visitors.
Innovative Design Concepts
The design packet for Pickle at the Palms presents three distinct concepts, each incorporating rooftop pickleball courts. These designs reflect a commitment to blending functionality with innovative architectural aesthetics. The facility’s elevated courts are expected to offer a unique playing experience while maximizing the use of available space.
Construction Timeline and Impact
Construction for Pickle at the Palms is scheduled to begin next year. Until then, the current use of the site as a tiny house village will remain unaffected. This phased approach ensures that existing residents and services continue to operate smoothly until the new facility is ready.
Development Team
The project is led by Pickle at the Palms LLC, with AXIS | GFA Architecture + Design at the helm of the architectural design. The development promises to enhance recreational options in Interbay, catering to the growing popularity of pickleball and contributing to the community’s vibrancy.
As the project moves forward, it represents a significant investment in the sport of pickleball and the Interbay neighborhood, with promises of a state-of-the-art facility that will attract players and enthusiasts from across the region.
