Officials with the King County Regional Homelessness Authority said they’ve been working to find housing for the more than 100 people who lived at the site.
Crews with the Washington Department of Transportation started clearing a homeless encampment under the Interstate 5 overpass Wednesday near King Street and 8th Avenue.
It follows another clearing from the state under the Ship Canal Bridge. Officials said all 14 of the people there accepted housing offers. Just a few days ago, Seattle Police confirmed they found a dead body during another fire response. The cause of death is still being determined by the medical examiner’s office.
