The construction of Ronald Commons officially started on October 26, 2015. When it is completed in 14 months, 60 families and individuals will have an affordable home and Hopelink will have a new Service Center. The completed Ronald Commons campus will be an open, welcoming space for the community.
For three weeks starting in mid-November, the general contractor Walsh Construction is taking truckloads of dirt away from the site to dig the hole for the parking garage. During this time, there will be dump trucks accessing the site from Linden Avenue, loading dirt and then hauling it away using Linden Avenue. Once the hole for the parking garage is excavated by mid-December, all construction truck traffic will move to enter and exit the site from Aurora Avenue.
Rerouting and replacement of utilities will also start during December and be completed in January. This work will include intermittent disruptions on Linden Avenue as Walsh connects utilities to the site. Some of this work will happen in the Right of Way (ROW) on Linden. The ROW work is expected to take approximately one week. Walsh will mitigate the impact to traffic and the roadway during this work.
Ronald Commons reflects a cooperation among Compass Housing, Hopelink, and the Ronald United Methodist Church in Shoreline.

Funny, there was no public communication about the dozens and dozens of tall, old tree carcasses being hauled away. Again, nice idea for a project... tons of vacant, blighted space all up and down Aurora, but no, the City knows best and approved exceptions to density and the City Tree Code to allow this 'right project, wrong space'.
