Part 1 of 5: New malls set to open in 1973 touted as ‘total living environment, walking community’ BY MATT PHELPS AND CARRIE WOOD Kirkland Reporter

the lawsuit between them, the decline of the site and the economic impact to the city and residents and what might lay ahead for one of the most important pieces of real estate in Kirkland. This week we will explore the history of a mall that was originally called Totem Lake Center.

Built in a style reminiscent of a Native American longhouse, the malls featured Totem Lake Center had a hand-carved benches and a huge impact on Kirklanders’ Native American motif that lives.

With 11 state legislators answering questions on topics from business taxes to education, members of 10 east King County chambers of commerce recently got at least a small glimpse of the upcoming legislative session in Olympia. The main message coming from legislators was no surprise: cuts to services are coming. State Rep. Larry Springer, D-Kirkland, put the state’s budget fix in stark terms. According to Springer, Olympia could close the entire state prison system and lay off every state worker and still not close the existing gap between revenues and expenses. To solve the problems, several legislators talked about increasing efficiencies, while others said lawmakers need to determine the state’s core services and set funding priorities — as well as eliminating programming — accordingly.

vote in the Legislature or voter approval to increase taxes. Yes, Democrats hold a majority in both houses, but they don’t command two-thirds of the votes. Some point out that Gregoire’s budget also is hitting state workers. Yes, it’s true, but to what extent? State workers, who have had to pay 12 percent of their healthcare premiums, would have to pay 15 percent of them under Gregoire’s budget. Workers still would get step increases, which give them more pay based on years of service. Gregoire says a hiring freeze would pay for those, but we suspect a “freeze� would soon thaw. If the governor is right - that the cuts would be a disaster – then the Legislature needs to acknowledge this and approach the budget as if it faces an emergency. That puts everything on the table: those step pay increases, a significantly higher percent of employee paid health-care premiums and even absolute pay cuts for state employees. Do we deny the poor any type of health insurance? Do we turn our back on the disabled who have no options at all? Who, really, does the state need to take care of first? The next state budget will answer these moral questions. We pray the Legislature is up to the task.

“Are you satisfied with the current state of Totem Lake Malls?�

COMMENTARY

?

Question of the week:

few weeks ago we editorialized about the stark choices lawmakers faced when they then met to balance the current state budget. Things have now gone from stark to grim. The latest bad news comes from Gov. Chris Gregoire, who has given state lawmakers her budget for the next biennium. By law, the budget must be balanced – and she has done this. Faced with growing deficits, Gregoire slashed programs in order to cut $4 billion from the 2011-2013 budget. The question for lawmakers – and taxpayers, too – is to consider something Gregoire herself said about her efforts: “I hate my budget. I don’t think it’s moral.� She’s right. Some of her cuts are dramatic. She eliminated the State Arts

Commission and the State Tourism Office. Her budget almost assures that tuition costs at state colleges will rise at double-digit rates. And state ferry service would be trimmed; however fares would rise by 10 percent – again, to make up for the budget deficit. Taken together with a host of other cuts, the budget would eliminate about 3,800 full-time equivalent positions in state agencies, higher education and public schools. Those would hurt, but they aren’t life-or-death issues. Others are. Her budget also eliminates the state’s Basic Health Plan, the program which provides subsidized insurance for the 66,000 people who, while working, are undeniably poor. The budget also ends the Disability Lifeline. That one provides cash to thousands of disabled poor. They don’t even have hope of advancing to the working poor. Gregoire’s budget isn’t the final word, but only the beginning. Legislators in the House and Senate will craft their own version of the budget when they convene next month. But, the governor says, lawmakers probably will end up where she did. Realistically, they can’t raise taxes; voters blocked that avenue when they passed Tim Eyman’s initiative that requires a two-thirds

Triplett moving expenses insult Kirkland City Manager Kurt Triplett is one of the highest paid city managers on the Eastside. In addition to his $174,000 salary, he gets a generous car allowance and other benefits and perks. So Mr. Triplett can meet the residency requirements for the city manager position, the Kirkland Council waived the residency requirement and then approved the use of taxpayers money to pay Mr. Triplett $25,000 so he can rent a city-owned house while he tries to sell his house in Seattle. His Seattle house is worth less than his mortgage, so Triplett, join the other millions of Americans who are upside down on their mortgages. This is an outrageous insult to the taxpayers of Kirkland, and the council should reconsider this overly generous offer to Triplett. Gee, maybe he will have to sell his Seattle house at a loss, or maybe he should rent his house in Seattle while he rents in Kirkland. Millions of Americans are making financial sacrifices every day, and with Kirkland financially strapped, the taxpayers shouldn’t be subsidizing the city manager’s rental cost,

period. This at a time when the city can’t afford to keep public restrooms open, when they have removed garbage cans in parks, reduced general services, raised our taxes, and furloughed city employees. The council has a major disconnect with reality. We should vote them all out of office. How about using the $25,000 to hire seasonal park help, or use it to fix pot holes in the streets, or just about anything but this incredible waste.

Patrick Harris, Kirkland

City manager should cut back on expenses Appalling! That’s all I can say about the article in regards to Kurt Triplett (Jan. 7). If our new city manager can’t figure out how to sell a house while also buying a house and then come up with money for the moving costs, how will he be able to manage our city? When will the council actually stand up for the citizens and provide some accountability to us?! When will one of them actually step up to the plate? And, Mr. Triplett, how in your right mind can you accept over $30,000 to cover rent and moving expenses

from Seattle? With the continued cuts to city services, job layoffs and deterioration of downtown I would think you could find a better use for $30,000! These are the things you take into consideration prior to taking a new job – not just your annual income – a handsome amount of $174,000! Triplett, you and your family may need to cut back on expenses for awhile, but I am certain you could afford yourselves rental and moving expenses much better than many of your constituents! Many of us have cut back. Many of us are just happy to have a job, be able to pay for the basics and keep our kids in school. Everyone in Kirkland is not wealthy, there are many who live in poverty or just above, there are seniors, people with disabilities, people with limited means. You are mak-

ing a crummy introduction into your new position! By the way, there are plenty of houses on the market. My grandmother’s house, just off of 116th, is on the market. It wouldn’t be far for you to move and you might not even have to hire movers! We’ll be waiting for your call!

Leah Preston Ing, Kirkland

Triplett should forgo perks My job at city of Kirkland was eliminated as of Dec. 31 due to budget constraints, and the senior van program was outsourced to another company because we could not bring in an additional $30,000 per year in revenue. I understand why they made the decision concerning my position. Although painful to me and to the seniors of Kirkland, it was probably a

Move Parkplace to Totem Lake

fiscally responsible decision to make, considering the huge budget deficit that Kirkland was facing. My question is, why would the city trust someone to manage public finances, if that person can’t manage his own finances well enough to foot the bill for personal expenses himself rather than sticking it to the tax payers. The city just finished making many painful funding cuts to nonprofit organizations, as well as cutting its own staff. It seems that since the city manager is watching his fellow employees at the city of Kirkland suffer losses, he should be willing to forego certain perks to show that he is willing to share the pain. This decision just seems inconsistent to me given the sacrifices the city has demanded of long-time staff members.

I’m not waiting for your series on Totem Lake. I know exactly what I want to see at that location. Pick up Touchstone’s plans for Parkplace and move them lock, stock and barrel to Totem Lake. It provides easy access from the freeway; roads that can handle the traffic without being bumper to bumper day in and day out; plenty of room for parking; placement in an area of primarily commercial development; an elevation that can handle the 8-story buildings; and an area that can take the activity and noise without disrupting quality of life. The tax revenue coming into the Totem Lake area would benefit all of Kirkland. Surely some sort of deal could be worked out between Touchstone, the current owners of Totem Lake, and the city.

of time, and usually involves supplementing fiber to help “sweep� the intestines, some liver and kidney stimulating herbs, and possibly plantbased laxatives. Often, people experience increased energy, better digestion, and better sleep and mental clarity after doing a cleanse for a week to a month. Stress, inflammation, and exposure to chemicals and taking many pharmaceutical medicines all take its toll on the liver. Sometimes avoiding all of the above can be hard to do, so in lieu of that, many medicinal herbs are excellent for the liver. Eating bitter salad greens, taking herbs in capsule, tea, or liquid extract form such as burdock root, artichoke leaf, milk thistle seed, and dandelion root, are great ways to stimulate the liver to release toxins and many also act as gentle diuretics by stimulating the kidneys, while promoting the flow of digestive juices.

RESOLUTIONS

Most people have a vague idea that they have a liver, kidneys, and a colon; some know where they are and what they do. When we talk about things like the “lymphatics� and the gallbladder and spleen, few people know their function or location. So, your liver is located just over and to the right of your midline, tucked partially under your right rib cage. It is involved in too many processes to mention here, but is the primary filter in the body. That means it packages, metabolizes, and neutralizes many things we intake and produce. This is the time of year many people think of as an opportunity to start anew. A cleanse or detox can mean many things and can be strong or gentle in its action and can involve dietary changes or not. Primarily, a cleanse involves targeting the primary elimination organs or channels through which our body gets rid of excess nutrients, toxins, or other waste products. It can involve removing solid foods from the diet, or eating only unprocessed, easy to digest foods for a period

ast season the Lake Washington boys made the start tournament for the first time in 13 years under first year head coach Barry Johnson. This season the team returned just two members of that squad, battling high expectations early. “We started out ranked No. 4,� said Johnson of a preseason state basketball poll. “We should have never been ranked and I kind of looked at that and saw a target. We have 11 new guys and only two (of the 14 total) had experience. That kind of put an unfair bullseye on our kids and they thought they were a little cooler than they were.� The team, which has a 7-4 record so far this season and is 4-2 in KingCo 3A, had to learn to deal with the pressure of the preseason ranking early on, despite being a young team. “It’s been a learning experience for all of us,� said Johnson. “We’re still young now.� Early success on the court

has been a team effort, relying on the Kangs strengths, like their transition game, Johnson said. “Where we can get out and transition, I think we’re a really, really good team,� said the coach. The team also gets a helping hand from 6 foot 11 inch junior Darien Nelson Henry and Matt Staudacher, Johnson said. But even when injuries pile up or players need a break, the Kangs have talent across the board. For the last several years Lake Washington competed in the KingCo 4A league, but dropped down this season. Though, from Johnson’s point of view, the strength of the leagues are very similar. “You have to play,� he said. “Last year, in KingCo

4A where we were, it was a good league and you had to be ready to play every single night. This is the same thing, now the powers, I believe, have really shifted over to KingCo 3A, not just because we’re here, but because of a lot of other teams. Those are all really good teams. You can’t overlook anybody because you’ll get knocked off.� The Kangs learned that lesson early on with a defeat to Sammamish in December, but followed it up with a win over Bellevue in January. “I think toughness is key,� said Johnson about the team’s focus in the early weeks of the season. “Not just on a physical level, but toughness mentally. You look at any of the box scores and we’re a good team, we’ll get up by 20 and then we’ll just think everything’s all good and drop it.� Gaining experience on the court and learning those ins and outs of the game is part of Johnson’s goals for the team this year.

www.kirklandreporter.com center was designed by Richard C. Bouillon & Co., which also developed the Lake Forest Park Center in 1964. “We went through two or three developers,” Woods recalled. There were originally some issues with building the mall, since nearly 600 acres drained into Mudd Lake at the time, leaving just 16 acres to develop. The wetland and lake, which was sold to King Conservation District in 1979 by the mall developer, would eventually encompass 26 acres. Richard C. Bouillon & Co. chose a theme that would resonate for years. “It was built to resemble a longhouse and had a neat Totem Pole sign,” said Hawkinson. “The pole is still there inside the Totem Lake sign so that the sign could remain ... heights are grandfathered in if the same sign is used.” The Native American designs were done by Kenton Pies, a Northwest artist, in wood, by hand and with power tools. “The high cedar-shake covered beams and sky-lit ceilings will add to the openness of the mall,” reported the newspaper.

In the early days, the mall held special events with a Native American theme, including Indian Summer Days that featured a salmon bake, tepee construction, tribal dancing and a tepee encampment set up on the upper mall lawn. Parking could accommodate nearly 1,000 cars. “I remember when the Totem Lake Mall opened,” said current Kirkland Mayor Joan McBride. “There used to be a large clothing chain called Rhodes, and my mother bought a dress for my first junior high dance there. The Totem Lake Mall was full of activity and it was so exciting.” And while Bellevue Square was the big shopping center, Totem Lake was a huge addition for the Eastside, opening in May of 1973. The opening was attended by many dignitaries, including M.L. Lamont. “I am very excited about the new center and hope it will regenerate traffic back to the Eastside,” Woods told the newspaper in 1972. “This will do the Kirkland businessmen good, some housekeeping needs to be done. We welcome you to Kirkland.”

First mall occupants Getting tenants was not easy at first. “We struggled to get local businesses to move in because the area was under-developed,” said Woods, noting the chicken farms and small ranches that surrounded the malls. Eventually the planners, city staff and King County signed the Lamont’s company and its family of stores. The main attraction, a 40,000-square-foot Lamont’s, would not open until October of 1973. “The anchor was the Pay ‘n Save (Company’s) chain with Ernst, Malmo, Schuck’s, Lamont’s, Sportswest and Pay ‘n Save Drug,” said Hawkinson. Pay ‘n Save featured a pharmacy, large cosmetic area and a large sound and camera department. Lamont’s at Totem Lake, which was a family clothing store, was only the sixth in the Seattle chain’s history. It eventually had 70 stores nationwide. Schuck’s Auto Supply, which is the 21st in the chain’s history, remained on the property until last fall when it changed its name to O’Rielly Auto Parts and moved across the street from the original mall property.

Jones was one of the first employees hired to work at Ernst Hardware when it opened. Malmo was the nursery for Ernst. “Ernst was brand spanking new, sparkling, and I answered a local ad to work there,� Jones recalled. “Ernst hired everyone at once, bringing in some management temporarily to set the store up.� The cash registers were state-of-the-art, she said, and “people paid as much using cash as using a credit card. Ernst, Pay ‘n Save and a res-

taurant were there, and that was about it. No other shops had come in yet.� A second mall was later built across 120th Ave. N.E. The street still divides the two malls. “They had to do that because Evergreen Hospital needed access from the south at the time,� said Woods, who noted there was no exit ramp to the north off I-405. The only original remaining tenants are in the upper mall in Denny’s Pet World and Big 5 Sport, originally named Sportswest. “Denny’s has been a part of the mall since the opening of

the upper mall in 1974,� said current owner John Fleshman, who began working at his brother Dennis’ store when he was 13 years old and purchased the business in 1985. The first year of the upper mall did not go as planned. A 20-foot section of roof collapsed into Olsen’s Market Place in October of 1974. Jake Meyers, manager of Olsen’s, said a weak beam breaking under the weight of water build-up was the probable cause, but the damage was not major, reported the Journal American in 1974. Roof problems would become a running theme in later years with Totem Lake Malls. The addition of the upper mall brought 35 new shops, increasing the total number of businesses and services available at Totem Lake to about 70. The project, originally built in unincorporated King County, was annexed into Kirkland in 1974. “It was a big development for Kirkland at the time,� said Woods. “Our Planning Department just could not handle it.� John Spangenberg, Kirkland city planner from 19701979, said that during this time with the city, the malls were not the primary focus. “The big question mark was related to the hospital,� said Spangenberg. “A lot of focus went into the hospital and surrounding land in terms of supporting facilities nearby.� The rest of the Totem Lake neighborhood was incorporated by Kirkland in 1993.

The 1980s and beyond A big addition came in 1980 when the Totem Lake Cinemas opened. One of the first big movies to be played at the theater was “The Empire Strikes Back.� The cinema was a big deal and had positives and negatives for the other businesses.

Kirkland Conversations: Totem Lake - the ‘Sleeping Giant’

Let’s broadly define the area for this discussion as the Totem Lake neighborhood with its epicenter at the intersection of N.E. 124th Street and I-405. This goes beyond what first usually comes to mind – the malls. Does Totem Lake really matter? These statistics suggest Totem Lake is important: t QFSDFOU PG ,JSLMBOE T jobs t QFSDFOU PG ,JSLMBOE T sales tax t QFSDFOU PG ,JSLMBOE T acreage t QFSDFOU PG ,JSLMBOE T current population Kirkland’s largest employer, Evergreen Healthcare, is prominent in Totem Lake. The auto dealerships in Totem Lake contribute significant sales taxes supporting important city services. Transportation investment in the N.E. 128th Street overpass of I-405 has improved traffic circulation somewhat. Programmed improvements UP * BMPOH / & UI Street and addition of a IBMG JOUFSDIBOHF BU / & E Street will provide additional help to the traffic situation. Plans for additional devel-

one of a dozen properties nationwide involved in the lawsuit. Unfortunately, that is where it stands at the moment, and it appears that the courts will have to act before much more can happen with redevelopment. Despite lawsuits, floods, and delayed funding, we can take stock of what we have, and what we would like to have in this neighborhood. There are a lot of hard working, long-standing businesses and neighbors living and working in Totem Lake, but there are significant improvements we want to have when change occurs. To begin the conversation, we have some questions for you to ponder. Please create your discussion groups and see what answers you come up with for the questions. Return your conclusions, and any additional comments, to the Reporter. You may also complete the survey online at www.kirklandreporter.com. We will publish the results that will be relayed to the Kirkland City Council. Your care in engaging with your acquaintances to discuss improvements to our community is the way we build a community conversation around important topics. Given the challenges we have, how do we move forward to improve this important part of our community? Let’s have a conversation!

What about the malls? One of the quietest places in Kirkland, now, is the hallway of the lower mall in Totem Lake. The memories of a once-bustling retail trade, pale in the gloomy silence – awaiting promised improvements. Kirkland waits also. More than five years ago, the city worked with representatives of the new owners of the malls to determine how their plans could be supported. Changes were made to the city’s Comprehensive Plan accommodating their vision. A development agreement with the owners was approved, committing the city to $15 million infrastructure investment. The new owners’ plans called for around $100 million for retail, office, housing and a hotel. The new owners took some actions to recruit businesses. A Preliminary Master Plan was approved showing the redevelopment plan. Included in that was a central, public open space as part of the redevelopment. Some challenges became evident when prospective businesses found that they had agreements not to locate new stores within 10 miles of an established business – think Bellevue Square. In 2009, the malls’ financial partner sued the developer alleging fraud, malfeasance and mismanagement among other allegations. Totem Lake Malls is only Dave Asher

What is Totem Lake?

opment of traffic circulator streets in the south and east parts of the business district should also provide additional traffic options. Transit improvements have provided additional flexibility and opportunities with Sound Transit’s investment in a transit center located between the hospital and the Totem Lake Malls. The direct-access ramp at N.E. 128th Street has provided access to a greater variety of regional transit routes. The city designated the Totem Lake neighborhood as an “Urban Center,� which has established the area as a regional priority for investments to accommodate significant growth. We will eventually see the highest density of jobs and housing in the city here – a neighborhood where you have most shopping and services conveniently located within walking distance. Of course, that depends on an economic situation supporting growth. Totem Lake will be the central area of the new, “greater Kirkland,� and the city is making investments in Totem Lake that reflect that. The city purchased the My Home Wholesale building as a public safety building for police and courts. And Kirkland’s new off-leash dog park will also be opening up in Totem Lake.

replaced with ceramic tile. The malls original ownership sold the site in 1998 for $18 million to AMB Property LP. The property was then sold one year later for a $16 million profit to the California Public Employees’ Retirement System, according to King County tax records. Since then, the malls have been sold one more time in 2004 to the current owners, Coventry/DDR. Neither of the current owners or their lawyers returned numerous phone calls and e-mails from the Reporter. A third strip mall with five storefronts was eventually developed in 1994 that is currently located between 405 and Totem Lake Boulevard. The Reporter could not completely verify the actual date of construction. Tax records show the land being purchased by The Puget Sound Regional Transit Authority in 2004. The building has the same architectural design as the malls. Land in the parking lot of the upper mall was sold off to Washington Mutual, now Chase Bank, in 2008 according to tax records.
