Cypress Partners Mixed-Use Development with Parking Structure

Ferndale

Description

The council approved a non-binding letter of intent to keep exploring a public-private project on the city-owned lot: a three-story parking garage with about 250 spaces and 86 apartments above, with tax capture helping repay a bond. Design, financing, and public engagement are still early-stage.

Impact summary

If built, it would return the 75 spaces lost to Vester Flats plus the 47 on the current lot, add roughly 40 net new spaces, and bring 100–110 new residents downtown — but construction would temporarily remove all existing lot parking.
