TINY TREASURES ELC

education DESIGN — early learning — community

MOUNTLAKE TERRACE, WASHINGTON

Tiny Treasures represents the realization of an immigrant family’s dream. Located in one of the State’s most severe “childcare deserts,” this ELC will provide five classrooms for toddlers and pre-school age children on an urban site in Mountlake Terrace, less than a quarter mile from the newly opened Lynwood Link Light Rail station.

The site - located on the border between the cities of Mountlake Terrace and Lynnwood - requires a complicated entitlements process due to utilities and site access being split between two jurisdictions. We worked with the Owners to negotiate an easement access with the neighboring supermarket and a complex parking agreement with the City in order to complete obtain a Conditional Use Permit.
