Households throughout the country, particularly those with the lowest incomes, are struggling with the high cost of housing because of decades of underbuilding, high construction costs, and the resulting shortage of homes for sale and for rent, all combined with inadequately funded housing assistance. A national survey released in late 2023 shows strong support for state and municipal policies to allow more homes of different types to be built to help bring down costs.

We are thrilled to share that Cedar Crossing, an affordable housing TOD project, has received a WASLA Honor Award in the Residential category! 🏆 A huge shoutout to our incredible project team for their dedication and hard work in making this possible. 👏 Cedar Crossing features 254 units of affordable housing, strategically located next to several public transit stations, including the 1 Line and numerous bus routes, prioritizing convenient travel for its residents. 🚉🚌 Washintgon ASLA | Perkins Eastman | Berger Partnership | Bellwether Housing | Walsh Construction Co. #CedarCrossing #WASLA #AffordableHousing #TOD #SustainableLiving

As we near completion of the new Flourish on Rainier Apartments for Bellwether Housing, we'd like to spotlight the beautiful and unique murals on the outside of the building and the local artists who created them. Enjoy! https://lnkd.in/dthtJ-N4

As we step into Mental Health Awareness Month this May, it's imperative to recognize the profound impact that safe and affordable housing has on mental well-being. At Bellwether Housing, where our mission revolves around providing quality housing options for all, this connection is at the core of our work. https://lnkd.in/gVd_pPgi

Congrats to Chief Seattle Club for its new "Sacred Medicine House," an apartment complex in Seattle's Lake City neighborhood dedicated to permanently housing people experiencing homelessness.

We're excited to announce that our Overlake Village building will be named Prisma! The name represents the diversity (full spectrum of light through a prism) of communities the building will serve. Opening in 2027, this transit-oriented, affordable rental housing is adjacent to the Overlake Village Station in Redmond and will provide 333 homes for low to moderate-income households (30-80% area median income). Come visit Bellwether Housing staff tomorrow at the opening of the Sound Transit East Link Extension Starter Line 2--we'll be at the Overlake Village Station Booth 8! There will be food trucks, music, and more.
