On Thursday, Sept. 2, Bartlett Tree Experts will remove dead and hazardous trees on Seattle Children’s property at NE 70th Street and Sand Point Way NE. Most of the trees are located within the property’s interior, but a few are located near the perimeter in the following locations:

  • The south side of NE 70th Street between the Burke-Gilman Trail and Seattle Children’s 70th Street driveway
  • The southwest corner of the NE 70th Street and Sand Point Way NE intersection (the northeast corner of the property)
  • The west side of Sand Point Way NE north of Seattle Children’s Sand Point Way driveway

Two street parking spaces on the south side of NE 70th Street will be coned off during this work. Two-way traffic will be maintained on all streets. The crew will use chainsaws and chippers, which will generate noise. This tree work is scheduled to take place between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m.

Renovations Begin at 70th and Sand Point Way in early September

August 27, 2021  |  Construction Updates, Seattle Children's Hospital Campus  |  Post Comment

Starting Tuesday September 7, renovations will begin on the 70th and Sand Point Way building to prepare the second floor (upper floor) to become the new home to the Autism Clinic and Outpatient Behavioral Health program. Renovations are anticipated to take about a year to complete and the new clinic space is expected to open in late 2022 or early 2023.

For the first six weeks of work, demolition activities will occur inside of the building between 2:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. weekdays.  At 8:00 a.m., crews will move to working outside of the building until around 12:00 p.m.  After the first 6 weeks, construction is expected to occur weekdays between 6:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. until the middle of next year (2022).

The majority of the work will be confined to the interior of the building, with the exception of a playground renovation that will happen later in the project. Neighbors may hear some noise on the exterior of the building from debris removal during demolition and crews will be sure to limit noisy activity until after 8:00 a.m.

Some parking changes will be in place for staff and visitors, please follow all posted signage when visiting the building. Staff are not allowed to park on neighborhood streets and Seattle Children’s security will continue to monitor to ensure staff are complying with our parking policies.

For any questions, call 206-987-8000 or email [email protected].

Building Care Boiler Work to Produce Steam and Noise, Aug. 16 to Aug. 20

August 6, 2021  |  Building Care, Seattle Children's Hospital Campus  |  Post Comment

From Monday, Aug. 16, to Friday, Aug. 20, construction crews will start up and calibrate the boilers in Building Care at the hospital campus. At times throughout the week, this will generate a “pinging” noise that may be audible to neighbors, and steam will be released from the northwest corner of the building. These periods of noise and steam discharge may last up to four hours at a time between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m.

There is no need for concern if you hear the noise or see the steam. We have notified the fire department of this work. Please call 206-987-8000 or email [email protected] with questions.
