The senior community housing company Aegis Living is building a new facility in Ballard at 949 NW Market St.
The Ballard Aegis, expected to open in Oct. 2023, will have 68 assisted living apartments for seniors, and 24 memory care apartments. The complex will also have an in-house theater, wellness center, and sports den for residents.

The plans call for a 5-story building with 39 parking spots. Currently, a 4-bedroom brick house is on the corner lot where Aegis will be constructed (943 NW Market St). According to King County records, the home sold for $1.4 million last July.
The Aegis website says the new facility will, “reflect the cozy small-town feel of this unique neighborhood and seamlessly blend with a distinctly northwest style and a nod to its Nordic heritage.”
