SEATTLE — A 70-year-old traffic flagger was hospitalized after being struck by a dump truck on Capitol Hill on Friday morning, according to Seattle police.

The collision happened near the intersection of Broadway and East Pine Street just before 11 a.m. The woman was taken to Harborview Medical Center.

She was working for a private company at the time of the crash, according to police.

The Seattle Police Department Traffic Collision Investigative Squad is investigating.

The dump truck driver remained at the scene and was speaking with officers, police said.

A unique collection of tiny homes built across a single lot in Seattle has just hit the market for the bargain price of $900,000. That boils down to just $300,000 per home.

Located on the outskirts of Puget Park, the properties have been meticulously restored in recent years, having previously been used as accommodation for staff at a nearby industrial estate.

“When the sellers bought the property, they were three little huts that were falling apart,” says listing agent Patti Hill of John L. Scott–West Seattle.

“They were used as workers’ homes. The sellers rebuilt them between 2021 and 2023, and now they are way cool.”

Originally constructed in 1907 in the gated Industrial District West, the multifamily cedar-sided cottages have come a long way from the crumbling structures that the sellers found in 2015, when they purchased the property for just $60,000.

Today, the three dwellings boasts modernized spaces with loft-style interiors and a world of opportunity for their future use.

Each Pigeon Point residence offers one bedroom, one bathroom, and a kitchen space, meaning that they can operate as entirely independent properties.

Hardwood and concrete floors, exposed beams, sleek kitchens and bathrooms, skylights, and energy-efficient thermal windows can be found throughout the interiors. Each tiny home also has a private deck.

For the past few years, the compound has operated as a kind of micro-neighborhood, with each dwelling serving as a private residence for a long-term renter.

“The sellers have long-term renters using them,” Hill explains. “I think the next buyer will probably be an investor who will keep it as a rental property. It could also be someone looking to live in one of the cottages as a primary residence and rent the other two out.”

Alternatively, the compound would be a unique multigenerational abode. Or if a group of friends are looking to get onto the property ladder for a lower price, it could be turned into a kind of modern commune.

“An ideal setup for investors, owner-users, or anyone looking for a unique multi-home property in a prime Seattle location,” the listing notes.

Located on just one fully fenced-in lot, the triplex community is centered around a patio, offering a “shared community vibe,” while also maintaining the privacy of each resident.

“All of the residents get along, and there is a fire pit that everyone uses,” Hill says.

What’s more, because the homes all occupy a single lot, the taxes are incredibly low. Records show that 2025 fees were just $8,106 for all three properties.

“It’s one lot. We didn’t split the lot, so it’s one tax parcel,” the listing agent confirms.

Almost as intriguing as the three detached cottage assemblage is the compound’s unusual site.

“It’s an interesting location that is very industrial,” Hill reveals. “There is a working waterway a block away where ships come in and load containers.”
