Tukwila will also plan for and promote residential and employment densities that support <br />ridership potential and contribute to accommodating growth needs within its high capacity <br />transit corridor. <br />While GTC's strategies were considered during the preparation of the TIB element, they will <br />become more of a driving force during station area master planning. <br />THE TIB DISTRICT <br />The TIB District boundaries are shown in Figure 1. The District extends from S. 128th Street on <br />the north to S. 160th Street on the south, and from Military Road and Tukwila International <br />Boulevard (TIB) on the west to 42nd Avenue South on the east. North of the TIB District is <br />primarily an area comprising the City's manufacturing industrial center, containing a mix of <br />industrial and commercial uses. South and west of the TIB District is the City of SeaTac, and <br />farther south on International Boulevard is SeaTac International Airport. <br />TIB remains one of the highest priorities for redevelopment in the City. Its multi - cultural flavor <br />and available land provide opportunities, while safety concerns, pedestrian connections, limited <br />retail opportunities and market perceptions are challenges. By building a complete <br />neighborhood, promoting the District's diversity and international flavor, and leveraging the <br />area's excellent transit access and opportunities for redevelopment, the TIB neighborhood has <br />the opportunity to be South King County's premier community -based center for cultural and <br />commercial activity. <br />\ \DEPTSTORE \DCD Common$ \Long Range Projects \2014 CompPlanUpdate \Transportation Corridors \Draft Element \Draft TIB <br />Element—PC Review_5.21.15.docx 2 05/07/2015 <br />
