COMPREHENSIVE PLAN VISION FOR FEDERAL WAY
Description of City Center
• The CC is approximately 414 acres in size. The City Center Core and Frame areas are 209 and
205 acres, respectively.
Vision for City Center
• The CC is an identifiable and vibrant "downtown" comprised of a diverse mix of office,
commercial, retail sales, services, entertainment, and housing; with the CC -C containing the
City's tallest buildings and the CC -F containing transitional heights between the CC -C and
adjacent lower- height areas.
• The CC is the primary commercial area providing local goods and services to the surrounding
neighborhoods, and to residents and employees within the center area.
• The CC is characterized by:
o Mixed -use developments
o Pedestrian- oriented streetscapes
o Livable and affordable housing
o A network of public spaces and parks
o Development of superior design and quality
o General services such as retail, office, and hotel uses that draw people from outside
the region
o Connections to a convenient regional transit system
• The CC is connected to other regional urban centers and areas of the City by a multimodal
transportation system, including a fast and convenient regional transit system.
• Traffic flow has been improved around and through the CC by extending the street network,
creating smaller blocks, and completing the ring road along the west edge of the CC.
• There is a pedestrian/bicycle pathway through the CC connecting Steel Lake Park and
Celebration Park.
• The CC has evolved into a lively and attractive place to live, shop, and conduct business with a
network of outdoor spaces for recreation, strolling, gathering, and dining. Outdoor spaces range
from a major urban park that is the focal point for downtown, to pocket urban plazas for lunch
time gathering by residents, visitors, and workers.
p
• A parking garage has been built through a public /private partnership. This has freed up space for
construction of multi -story developments.
Vision for City Center -Core
• The CC-C provides a central gathering place for the community where civic and cultural
activities and events take place. The CC -C includes an outdoor park with public amenities such
as fountains, sculptures, and unique landscaping and a town square.
• Municipal Facilities and a performing arts center are grouped around the town square.
• The CC-C has the highest density of development, with a significant number of jobs and
residences within walking distance of a transit station. This helps reduce dependency on the
automobile and improves pedestrian mobility.
• The CC-C emphasizes pedestrian, bicycle, and transit mobility. The CC-C is less auto - oriented
than the CC -F, but it is not unfriendly to the use of automobiles.
• The CC-C has become the financial, retail, business, civic, and cultural hub of Federal Way.
City Center -Frame
• There are similar uses in the CC -F to those in the CC -C, but they are of lower- density and
intensity. The CC -C and CC -F complement each other.
• The CC -F provides a zone for dense mixed -use development that surrounds and supports the CC-
F.
• The CC -F provides a transition between high- activity areas in the CC -C and less dense
neighborhoods outside of the CC -F.
