Wesley at Tehaleh
Wesley at Tehaleh just celebrated its first anniversary! This community is an ideal destination for people to bring their families together and enjoy life outside the city in the relaxing foothills of Mt. Rainier.
“It was a beautiful day and the food was great. Three friends of mine attended the event, and they liked seeing the apartments,” said Diane Olson, volunteer greeter and resident of Wesley at Tehaleh.
Virginia Meadows, Wesley at Tehaleh resident, enjoyed the celebration with her son and daughter-in-law. “They loved the ice cream and music. It was just a gorgeous day,” she said.

At Wesley’s flagship community, construction on Phase III of the multi-phase, multi-year redevelopment has officially begun! Nearly all of the final new Cottage accommodations are now reserved, and more details will soon be shared for the Centre Point apartments on the fifth floor of the new wing.
Residents were treated to the first construction update of this phase from Anthony Mizen, the project’s construction superintendent from Walsh Construction. Anthony has been overseeing the project since the beginning. He shared some interesting facts at the meeting.
Phase III Updates

- The current estimated date of completion is February 16, 2024.
- The skybridge to the Terrace building on the north side of South 216th Street will be complete at the same time.
- Eleven new Cottage homes are being built by a different contractor and are expected to be complete in early 2023.
- Current work includes completing contracts with subcontractors.
- Materials were procured early to address longer lead times.
- 60,000 gallons of water was pumped off the site after the rain storm the previous week.
Crane Facts
- The crane for this phase is 22’ taller and 30’ longer than the previous crane. It can also handle more weight – up to 44,000 pounds.
