The site is bounded by <br />Tukwila International Boulevard on the east side and S 148th St on the south side. The <br />entire subject site is approximately 1.7 acre triangular shaped parcel which is currently <br />developed with retail and residential buildings. The project is located in the northeastern <br />.7 acre of the parcel. The triangular shaped parcel slopes from the higher western <br />property line to the lower elevations along Tukwila International Boulevard. A steep cut <br />bank exists in the central portion of the parcel in a north south direction behind the <br />existing retail buildings that front Tukwila International Boulevard. The preexisting uses <br />of the property consist of parking, retail car sales and appliance sales along the Tukwila <br />International Boulevard. The upper elevations of the parcel contain existing garage shop <br />and residences. The surrounding uses include car sales to the north; administrative <br />offices of Valley View Sewer District to the west; and a gas station and a fast food <br />restaurant to the east (across Tukwila International Boulevard). <br />Page 2 of 11 <br />
