Light poles at Jane Addams, Hale

Master-use permit applications have been submitted by the Seattle Public Schools District to install eight 73-foot-tall light poles around the existing athletic field at the former Jane Addams Middle School and 12 light poles, ranging in height from 82-95 feet, around the existing athletic field across the street at Nathan Hale High School. All of the light poles would have shielded flood lights.

The fields, which are currently unlighted, are used by Seattle Public Schools and Seattle Parks & Recreation for recreational sports activities. The Cityıs Department of Design, Construction and Land Use, which is reviewing the applications, would need to grant a special exception to allow the poles to exceed the 30-foot height limit in a single-family residential zone.

³Weıre shooting to get the lights installed this year but it depends on when we get the permit,² said Gene Tompkins of Waldron Akira Architects, which has been hired by the School District for the project.

The field lighting projects have drawn opposition from neighbors. Jane Addams is located at 11051 34th Ave. NE. Nathan Hale is located at 10750 30th Ave. NE.
