UNION STREET GONDOLA the urban aerial people mover

Meeting a key Seattle need East-West transportation The Union Street Gondola will connect the waterfront with the Convention Center and a mid-station between First and Third Avenues East-West Link

o Union Street is a busy downtown corridor but lacks transportation of any kind to the waterfront because the land west of First Avenue is a steep bluff served only by a steep staircase in a very pedestrian-hostile environment This project will provide the missing link

Ties to New Waterfront Park

o The Union Street Gondola will connect the new waterfront park with the city core

o It will enhance both public access to the park and the visitor experience itself

o The project supports three key goals of the Waterfront Strategic Plan increasing waterfront visitors improving a vital east-west connection and attracting private investment

o As a private investment the project will allow the city and taxpayers to reallocate resources potentially completing the build-out of the new waterfront park more quickly

Connects to Public Transportation

o The Union Street Gondola will be able to move 1800 people an hour along a major east-west corridor presently lacking public transportation

o It will connect the Convention Center the Downtown Transit Tunnel Pike Place Market the Art Museum and the new waterfront park

o The project is especially suited to serving families with young children the elderly and the disabled ndash those physically unable to climb the bluff or otherwise walk long distances

o In addition the service will benefit commuters who use transit to reach downtown and out-of-town visitors

o The project will enhance existing public transit service The mid-station will be within a block of a Downtown Transit Tunnel station and major north-south transit services making existing transit more attractive

Leverages Existing Parking

o Construction and redevelopment in the waterfront area will reduce currently existing parking even as demand to use the waterfront is expected to double The project helps address this major problem by enabling use of more distant existing parking facilities in the downtown helping to offset the more localized losses

FACT SHEET

Key Statistics

o frac12 mile (2800 feet) long o Five-minute trip (one way) o Three stations o Eight support columns o 1800 people can be

moved per hour o Eight-passenger cars depart

every 16 seconds o Funded solely by private

investment

Timing o If built promptly at the beginning of the tearing down of the Viaduct in 2016 it can also

provide a temporary benefit to waterfront businesses that will have been suffering from continuous constructions impacts during the 2012-2016 period and which will be worsened by the viaduct teardown

o In order to be timed with the initial phase of taking down the viaduct in 2016 the permitting needs to occur in 2013 so that engineering and purchasing can occur in rsquo14 and rsquo15

Green

o It is quiet fast and powered by electricity

Meeting a Critical Need

Union Street is a vital downtown street serving many important Seattle destinations including the Convention Center Benaroya Hall Seattle Art Museum and the Pike Place Market Union Street crosses 85 north-south bus routes and the regional light rail system The Union Street right-of-way also reaches the current Waterfront Park slated to be the jewel of the new central waterfront but because the land west of First Avenue is a steep bluff in reality there is no connection The Union Street Gondola will provide service to 1800 people an hour to all these destinations By linking the uptown to the waterfront the Gondola will not only encourage downtown guests to use public transportation it will also encourage better use of existing parking which will be essential in meeting the projected doubling of waterfront visitors from the current 3 million a year Since it will do this using private investment the Gondola project would allow the City and taxpayers to reallocate resources to other needs potentially completing the build-out of the new Waterfront more quickly Gondolas are becoming common solutions to unique urban transportation problems with more than 44 urban gondola systems worldwide The Portland (Oregon) Aerial Tram connecting two campuses of the Oregon Health Sciences University has carried more than one million passengers per year since opening in 2007 The Union Street Gondola will have twice the capacity of the Portland system Spacious enclosed cars will each carry 8 people and depart every 16 seconds You Can Help The Union Street Gondola has begun permitting with the City of Seattle In order to have the project ready to build as soon as the Viaduct comes down it is important the City move promptly

UNION STREET GONDOLA the urban aerial people mover

Why isnrsquot this being developed by the City or Metro Seattlersquos Waterfront is separated from the rest of the City by more than just the viaduct The topography between the Waterfront Pike Place Market and Convention Center neighborhoods is a steep cliff making bus taxi light rail or subway service impossible Currently there is no bus route serving this connection and access is limited The privately funded operated and maintained Union St Gondola will cost the city and taxpayers nothing but will provide tremendous benefits such as

1) Help to keep the waterfront accessible during the decade of heavy construction disruption

2) Provide a new EastWest connection which will connect Seattlersquos Downtown HotelRetail and Convention Center core to its Waterfront and Pike Place Market neighborhoods

3) Utilize an electric and green technology cutting down on carbon emissions from vehicle traffic and activating underutilized parking garages too far away and with too steep of hill to walk from the Waterfront

4) Bring more people into downtown and increase pedestriancycle and business activity throughout the city

Whatrsquos the timing and substance of the Cityrsquos review We are currently in an intensive permitting and review process with the City We have hired the best local professionals who are helping us complete this process Our goal is to open the Gondola in conjunction with the demolition of the viaduct How do we know the public will have adequate input on this project The permit process includes several opportunities for public involvement We have been meeting with Seattle residents business owners and downtown destinations for the past 2 years to include their feedback We value the publics input and have already made significant improvements to our concept based on this feedback How can a private company use the Cityrsquos right of way The gondola will run above the center line of Union St and operate entirely on City right of way We are working with the City to acquire long term access for this right of way similar to a sky bridge We will never own the City property only have an agreement to operate on it
