ANOTHER MULTI-PROJECT REVITALIZATION BY

Urban villages

Named for the railways that once ran through the area, RailSpur encompasses three historic warehouse buildings in Pioneer Square, Seattle’s first neighborhood. Constructed of brick and timber, the structures — and the corridors between them — connected the Great Northern Railway and the bustling port of Seattle.

Focused on preservation and sustainability as much as community and innovation, this transformative micro-district includes office, retail, restaurant, residential, and hospitality experiences.

The offices at 419 Occidental and Sonder Suites at 115 S. Jackson St. are now complete. In early 2025, three new Sea Creatures restaurants will open: Lowlander Brewery, Un Po Tipsy Pizzeria, and a European restaurant. Death & Co will also debut in Seattle, and Hotel Westland, a boutique hotel with a rooftop bar and restaurant, will open.

Defined by History

After a two-year design and entitlement process, Urban Villages broke ground in 2020 on what is one of the largest LEED Platinum, NPS-approved historic preservation projects in the country. This effort underscores Urban Villages’ ability to revitalize an area without compromising the historic essence, environmental standards, or community integration.

The private rail spur that divides the micro-district between North and South gives the block its unique alley configuration – and its name.

BRIGHT FUTURE

Everything about RailSpur will compel you to stay a while, to explore and discover, and to fall in love with Pioneer Square. From the carefully curated tenant mix to lighting and landscape design to programming and wayfinding, every single aspect of the district is being carefully considered to nurture a strong sense community. Once-utilitarian alleys and passages are being reimagined for connection and activity. Public art will abound and co-tenancies curated to foster a true 24-hour district.
