Major Projects: Port Quendall
 

Port Quendall

The Port Quendall project is a 68-acre site on the southeastern shore of Lake Washington. Once home to a coal tar refinery and creosote plant, the site is contaminated and in need of clean-up. The City's goal is to seek a public-private partnership to clean up the site and redevelop the land. The project will improve the environmental and economic climate of Renton, improve water quality and habitat and bring back to life a beautiful site. Port Quendall will also attract livable wage jobs, diversify Renton's economic base and provide a lakefront trail and park along the shore of Lake Washington.

The Southport and Port Quendall projects both address the following City business goals:

  • Encourage and support economic development; and
  • Promote the City's image in the community and region.
 
  Vulcan Northwest's experience working with Renton has been one of collaboration—a true "public/private partnership". We have found the leadership and staff of the City of Renton to be progressive, creative and enthusiastic about making things happen. Renton sets the standard for cities striving to think and act out of the box. We at Vulcan Northwest are proud to be associated with the people and programs of this great City.
