Community-Led Development Meets Deep-Rooted Partnerships

We embrace community-led development and engage in deep-rooted partnerships because it takes all of us to create equitable, vibrant communities. Learn about our current buildings here.

Community Roots Housing has hundreds of apartment homes in our development pipeline. We are actively seeking to expand our portfolio to help address the affordability crisis in Seattle. We aim to accomplish this by developing new affordable properties, rehabilitating and preserving current affordable housing, and acquiring existing buildings.

Northgate Affordable Housing

Community Roots Housing and BRIDGE Housing are partnering to create a new, transit-oriented housing development directly adjacent to the site of the Northgate Link light rail station. The project will bring 232 new affordable apartments to the Northgate neighborhood, as well as an almost 10,000-square-foot daycare on the ground level that will be run by El Centro de la Raza. The building will include a mix of apartment sizes, ranging from studios up to three-bedroom units, designed to meet the needs of various household sizes and create rare family sized affordable housing.

White Center Community HUB

Located on the site of a former public health center, the White Center Community HUB project aims to create a place of “Hope, Unity, and Belonging,” where working families can find affordable housing along with essential services that nurture their stability and create greater opportunity. Project partners White Center Community Development Association, Southwest Youth & Family Services, and Community Roots Housing are collaborating with King County to build a community-driven and designed campus created by and for White Center. Community members envision a center for learning with opportunities like workforce training, youth tutoring and childcare; integrated physical and behavioral health services.

This project is part of Rise Together, a collaborative capital campaign supporting equitable development in the Central District, Capitol Hill, and White Center.

Broadway Center for Youth

Community Roots Housing is partnering with YouthCare, a nonprofit devoted to ending youth homelessness, to create a new, eight-story mixed-use building on the southeast corner of Broadway and E. Pine. Located in the heart of Capitol Hill, this project is just down the street from Community Roots’ Pride Place project. The YouthCare project will create more than 80 new affordable apartments in the neighborhood, including units designated and set aside for youth experiencing homelessness. The building will also feature three floors for a new YouthCare education and employment resource hub, the Constellation Center, where the nonprofit will be able to expand their programmatic offerings.
