The historic Yesler Terrace Steam Plant will be converted into a community center thanks to $3.1M in funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and Seattle's housing authority. The center will become home to various community programs such as Catholic Community Service's Youth Tutoring program, an SEIU job-training center and Seattle Housing's employment opportunity services. The project includes adding a level to the building as well as additional parking. [SeattlePI]
