Recently-created overlay zoning allows residential buildings of 65 feet along Broadway Avenue, on Seattle’s Capitol Hill.  This overlay, 85 feet from the Broadway right-of-way, is clearly expressed in this simple, 6-story orange-brick frame.  The portion of the project east of the overlay zone, fronting on Mercer St. and 10th Ave., incorporates stacked lofts in red-brick rowhouses reflecting historic buildings across the street.
