Overview (Narrative Excerpt from Original Project Submission):
The Stitch is a unifying project that looks to repair and unify the barren downtown lives of King County—building on accessibility, social equity, and resiliency to unite the residents and outside tourists. The Stitch is a centrally located revitalized community that will become the beating heart of downtown Seattle. A place for people to live, work and play, The Stitch will provide connectivity to an underutilized area of Seattle, with a focus on sustainably repurposing existing structures to serve the area and its residents in an equitable manner.
