Stop the Burn. Clear the Path. Build Seattle.

High-stakes site compliance and entitlement execution for Seattle's most complex urban projects. While others manage paperwork, we resolve the technical deadlocks that trigger work stoppages and compound daily carry costs.

Solving high-density entitlement deadlocks in the heart of Seattle.

Capital Velocity Protection

On a 60-story high-rise, every day counts. While others take 5-7 business days to "scan" your site, you're losing $6,800–$8,200 per day in carry costs.

Waiting 7 days means losing $57,400 while consultants "assess." We don't assess—we intervene.

The 48-Hour Site Rescue Roadmap

Expedited triage for projects facing active SDCI investigations, withdrawn electrical permits, James Street logistics deadlocks, or Master Use Permit expiration cliffs. We provide the technical grit required to move dirt in the downtown core—not paperwork, but execution.

The North Cascadia Advantage

We don't just "consult"—we execute at the field level to prevent redesigns, appeals, and schedule extensions. Whether you are facing a $8,200/day carry cost or a Master Use Permit expiration, we provide the technical grit required to move dirt in the downtown core.

Our Specialized Compliance Scopes

Permit Renewal & Expiration Management

Agency-Specific Navigation

We resolve the "logistical nightmare" of downtown Seattle coordination—trolley lines, bus stops, and complex TCP revisions.

  • Phased-review queue management
  • Master Use Permit renewal (Oct 30, 2026 expiration)
  • Construction Permit hard-stop prevention
  • Code compliance investigation resolution
  • Complex TCP revisions (4th Ave & James St)
  • Lane closure coordination and approvals
  • Storm drain extension permit corrections

  • James Street trolley wire coordination
  • Bus stop relocation logistics
  • Transit infrastructure interface
  • High-traffic corridor staging coordination

Why Project Leads Trust Us

We understand that on a 60-story high-rise, a single "withdrawn" permit is a catastrophic barrier. Our approach is built on:
