The Port of Seattle is seeking authorization to purchase a 19,881 square foot parcel called Tract C from the City of Des Moines for $690,000 to support the Des Moines Creek West light industrial development project near Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. The parcel, located at the intersection of South 216th Street and 20th Avenue South, is needed to provide safe truck access for the development being built by ground lease tenant Panattoni Development Company. The purchase would also trigger an amendment to the existing ground lease, increasing both the leased square footage and lease revenues to the Port.
