What’s happening at…

Timberland senior housing

Rembold Companies, a local real estate development firm, is beginning construction on a senior housing community providing approximately 150 studio, one and two bedroom apartments, on a lot in the Timberland development north of Barnes Road in Cedar Mill. The location, directly across NW 118th from the recently-built commercial center, should make this an attractive place for seniors and their families. See the article from January 2014 for more background.

Foot Traffic

Foot Traffic will open in June at the former Apollo Pool site, at 13306 NW Cornell Rd. This is the fourth store for the local business, owned by Sean Rivers. Here’s what he tells us to expect at the new store!

• A huge selection of running and walking shoes with multiple treadmills for our complimentary video gait analysis services. A great selection of apparel & accessories. Expanded trail-focused products. An expanded kids shoe selection, and a kids play area & changing tables.

• A built in beer tap featuring local brews for refreshments after our free group runs/walks. Free group runs/walks on Monday evenings, and our training group runs/walks meeting on Saturday mornings.

• A super-awesome and knowledgeable management team lead by Morgan Saltenberger, a 7-year Foot Traffic employee!

• Unveiling at the grand opening of a chainsaw carving of Kara Goucher, one of the most inspiring & renowned female distance runners of our time–watch for the opening announcement.

Rivers says, “We are eager to extend our community-focused retail model on the West side. If you are interested in partnering with us on an event, fundraiser, or other great idea, don't hesitate to reach out by emailing us at info@foottraffic.us.”

St. Pius

Have you noticed the crane toweing over the St. Pius campus? It’s part of the construction for the Education Center East Wing Addition. The east wing will include eight additional classrooms including five homerooms, a new science room/lab, a new music room, a remodeled art room, classrooms for breakout and small group instruction, as well as a new administrative office, a new enclosed security entrance, and dedicated space for Faith Formation. You can take a look at construction progress via a video feed on their website.

Legacy Urgent Care

Legacy Health Systems entered into a joint venture partnership with GoHealth Urgent Care earlier this year, and the deal included the Urgent Care clinic on Cornell Road. Each center includes on-site X-rays and laboratory services. In addition to urgent care, Legacy-GoHealth provides sports physicals, and care for a variety of injuries (including fractures, abscesses, and lacerations). Unlike many walk-in health care businesses, GoHealth will take both Medicare and Medicaid.
