VISIT US

Columbia City is a historic landmark district in South Seattle, known for its international mix of restaurants and cafes, live music venues, Ark Lodge Cinema, locally-owned shops and businesses. In the 1890's, Columbia City was the last stop on the trolley line from downtown Seattle. Now, it is at the heart of the Light Rail line, 15 minutes from Sea-Tac Airport and 11 minutes to Downtown

Coming into the former La Teranga space is Evan Leichtling with plans to take advantage of the location's well known idiosyncrasies. Evan and his wife Meghna are currently thinking about "Off Alley" as the name and are hoping for a mid-April opening. Read more

Development News…

The Pho Bo Restaurant property has recently changed hands, and the new owner/developer CP Rainier LLC has begun the permitting process for a new mixed-use building with four levels of residential units over commercial and amenity space. The developer’s current (early) thinking is to provide 72 residential units, 3 small commercial spaces, and underground parking for 80 vehicles. The project architect says they hope to have permits a year from now and be ready for occupancy in late 2022.
