Abbey Lincoln Court

Abbey Lincoln Court, named for jazz singer and civil rights activist Abbey Lincoln, is located in Seattle’s Central District neighborhood. Abbey Lincoln Court provides 68 workforce housing apartments – including larger homes for families – as well as two live-work units. The building shares a courtyard with the adjacent companion development Ernestine Anderson Place, creating a gathering space where residents of both apartment communities can interact. This mid-block site responds to the adjacent park to the east with townhouse units and patios along the ground level.
