Overview
Seattle’s Pioneer Square Historic District has long been a neighborhood of artists. In the 1990s, market forces began driving artists out of the area at an alarming rate. Tashiro Kaplan Artist Lofts showcases 50 units of affordable live/work space for creatives and their families. Together, with Tashiro Arts Building, they have created close to 130,000 square feet of permanently affordable space for the arts, and by preserving these two historic buildings for artists and arts-friendly organizations they have helped maintain Pioneer Square’s distinctive character.
