This 32-unit complex will start soon on Jefferson Street near Seattle University.

The Seattle development firm Revolve said it has one apartment project that's nearly finished and another ready to break ground.

Yardhouse, a 35-unit, four-story complex at 1406 E. Republican St. on Capitol Hill, is slated to open in December.

Six of the units will open directly into a 1,600-square-foot interior courtyard. Yardhouse will have 19 parking stalls.

The exterior is cedar siding, steel and concrete.

Yardhouse is being built to LEED silver standards, with low-VOC paints and adhesives, low-flow plumbing fixtures, LED lighting in common areas and drought-tolerant landscaping.

Rents will range from $1,575-$2,200. Twenty percent of the units will be reserved for households earning 65 percent or 75 percent of area median income. Rents for those units will be up to $1,004-$1,323.

(Editor’s note: The story has been corrected to say that some of the units will be for households earning 65 percent or 75 percent of area median income, not 80 percent. )

Yardhouse on Capitol Hill is slated to open next month.

Revolve will soon begin construction on a four-story, 32-unit mixed-use project at 1315 E. Jefferson St. near Seattle University.

The contemporary-style building will be clad with metal panels, cedar planks and exposed concrete.

About 3,600 square feet of street-level retail is planned, along with 16 underground parking spaces and three surface stalls.

Units will be a mix of studios and one-bedrooms, and south-facing apartments will have decks.

The designer for both projects is Schack A+D, and the general contractor for both is Express Construction.

Schack A+D is led by Revolve Principal John Schack.
