Description

I just love these old buildings in downtown Seattle.. The light hit the building at night and gave it these golden tones. During the day it is more grey! I was happy to see that the building is up for historic restoration. I don't know when they will start working on it, but I really enjoyed seeing and looking at it in the night!
In August 2006 the Landmarks Preservation Board approved Historic Seattle’s Nomination and subsequently designated the Eitel Building a Seattle Landmark. Following the designation, the owner proposed constructing a 16-story tower above the Eitel Building envelope, a design that was turned down by the Board’s Architectural Review Committee. City staff prepared a Controls and Incentives document for the Landmark outlining design restrictions and financial benefits specific to the property, however, it has yet to be adopted due to a lengthy appeal process. As of July 2010 the Eitel Building remains vacant with no immediate plans for its rehabilitation.
