Plans are moving along for the hotel that would replace the former Ballard Blossom location on NW Market St.
The above is a rendering of what the new 8-story, 120-room hotel would look like. Lauren Garkel with the architecture firm Clark Barnes tells My Ballard that they’re planning a mass timber design, which will be Seattle’s first tall building built almost entirely from wood.
Garkel says there will be a restaurant on the main floor that will include some outdoor dining.
Ballard Blossom vacated their previous home last fall; they now operate in a building on NW 85th St.
The design plans are still moving through the SDCI permitting process—we’ll update with any new info.
