In 2007, the Columbia City / Hillman City Gateway Project received the Gathering Places Initiative award from Pomegranate Center for planning and design services to build a gathering place for the community. Learn more...
The Gateway Project has since evolved into a group of energetic, creative volunteers who are organizing events in partnership with SEEDArts, that connect Columbia City and Hillman City, increase the walkability along Rainier Avenue S, and encourage neighborhood involvement in their community.

UW Public Art Class Project
The UW Public Art Class recently adopted The Gateway Project for their final project of the Fall 2008 quarter. They visited SEED to talk about the history of the Gateway Project and were taken on a brief tour of Columbia City & Hillman City.
