Nihonmachi Alley Placemaking and Planning
Seattle Chinatown International District Preservation and Development Authority
About This Grant
Building off the momentum of the 2024 Nihonmachi Alley Concept Plan, which was funded by DON, SCIDpda will collaborate with community partners including the Japantown planning group, Wing Luke Museum, and CID Business Improvement Area to continue revitalization efforts. This funding allows work to continue in Nihonmachi Alley in 2 areas which are accessible to the public: Placemaking and Design & Planning. Placemaking efforts focus on Chiyo’s Garden where we will install new art from Erin Shigaki and install a decorative railing inside the gate to improve the usability and safety of the garden. The design and planning portion will build on the 2024 Concept Plan to hire an architecture/design and engineering team to repave the alley for safety and plan for permanent decorative and public art features. The anticipated project completion date is November 30, 2026.
