Homestead CLT

Still buzzing from the Nest Condominium Ribbon Cutting celebration!

What an incredible day to celebrate a project that demonstrates how housing affordability and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand.

Nest is more than a condominium community. It's an example of how we can create homes that reduce environmental impact while expanding access to homeownership in Seattle. Through energy-efficient design, a walkable neighborhood location, and a commitment to building housing within existing urban communities, Nest helps reduce carbon emissions while giving more families the opportunity to put down roots.

This project was made possible through years of collaboration among local and state government, lenders, community organizations, and private-sector partners who share a vision of communities that are both equitable and sustainable.

For too many working people—teachers, healthcare workers, nonprofit employees, public servants, and service-sector workers—homeownership in neighborhoods like Phinney Ridge has felt out of reach. Nest demonstrates that permanently affordable homeownership, environmental stewardship, beautiful design, and neighborhood opportunity can all exist together.

Swipe to see some of our favorite moments from the day and celebrate everyone who helped bring this vision to life.
