200-Unit Mixed-Use Project in Seattle’s Ballard Neighborhood
Walls Property Group has unveiled plans for a 200-unit mixed-use development in Seattle’s Ballard neighborhood. The proposed seven-story complex, designed by N5 Architecture, is set to occupy a half-acre site at 1723 NW Market Street. The project includes ground-floor commercial space, 54 parking spots, and bicycle storage. While most existing structures on the site are slated for demolition, a one-story building housing medical clinics and The Monkey Bridge restaurant will remain. Walls Property Group’s CEO, Preston Walls, has emphasized the unique retail potential of the development, which is still in the early design phase and is expected to break ground in the next few years. The project forms part of a broader wave of development in the area, with other nearby mixed-use projects adding hundreds of homes to the neighborhood. Additionally, Walls Property Group is concurrently developing a 55-unit complex at 1446 NW 53rd Street, marking the first new project in Washington to utilize Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy + Resiliency financing. This ambitious venture reflects Walls Property Group’s longstanding focus on the Seattle multifamily market and its commitment to transforming the Ballard district.

April 2020 Update:
Due to the global results of COVID-19, Walls Property Management will be postponing its trip to Kenya. We look forward to pursuing this opportunity in the future and encourage everyone to financially support other local non-profit organizations during this unprecedented time.
Coming soon: WPM Goes to Kenya!
Walls Property Management will be traveling to Kenya with Zosseo Overland Support in October 2020!
The primary goal of Zosseo Overland Support programs is to deliver treatment and preventative care for East Africans through mobile clinics. Though the needs of each community inform our activities, we typically provide extractions, preventive tooth decay treatments, tooth reconstructions, common pediatric oral care, dental health screenings, and other care. For those experiencing oral pain or discomfort, Zosseo Overland Support aims both to eliminate the source of pain and minimize the damage of infections. In the event that a patient requires intensive surgery that cannot be performed in the field, Zosseo Overland Support provides referrals and logistical support.
