To minimize the noise impact and improve quality of life for airport neighbors, the Port of Seattle offers sound insulation for eligible properties including single-family homes, condos, apartments, and places of worship. The Port Commission took an important next step this week to expand noise mitigation efforts in these communities, approving $40 million to begin the first phase of sound insulation construction for more than 215 apartment units in five apartment complexes located within SEA’s noise remedy boundary.
