Location: Burien, WA
Architect: ORB Architects (now Innova)
Munro Manor is one of King County Housing Authority’s subsided housing facilities for the elderly. At this Burien apartment buidling, the dated facade was replaced with a new, more inviting entry. In addition, the posts and beams supporting many of the apartment’s balconies required replacement due to rot. Unique features include stainless steel connectors at the re-constructed balconies, a cantilevered steel canopy at the new entry, and an 18 feet tall entry space.
