Get the Preliminary Draft EIS

Get 25 (of 400) Pages in Electronic Form
Kudos to a neighbor who did the leg work of making the first 25 pages of the Preliminary Draft EIS available in electronic form. Our source kindly points out that pages 1-23, 1-24, and 1-25 are likely of greatest interest. These pages summarize the consultant's opinions on the significant unavoidable adverse impacts and the secondary and cumulative impacts.

Please note that this file is very, very large. If downloads overdraft our bandwidth, we'll have to remove it.

The Full Document
Steve Sheppard has made reference copies of the Preliminary Draft Environmental Impact Statement for the Children's Hospital and Regional Medical Center Master Plan available at four locations.
  1. The Laurelhurst Community Center located at 4554 NE 41st Street
  2. The Northeast Branch Library located at 6801 35th Avenue NE
  3. The University Neighborhood Service Center located at 4534 University Way NE
  4. The front desk at the Department of Neighborhoods in the Seattle Municipal Tower located at 700 5th Avenue, Suite 1700 (17th Floor).
Please note that the Hospital's online Master Plan page itself contains only the plan, not the EIS.
