Did you know that Sound Transit’s efforts go beyond delivering public transit? 🚇 Our transit-oriented development (TOD) program fosters vibrant, livable communities near transit by putting land needed for construction and staging to use as opportunities for development. 🏙️ 🛠️ We recently celebrated the groundbreaking of a new TOD project near the Spring District Station! BRIDGE Housing’s project will bring 234 affordable homes to the Eastside on land that was used for construction of the Operations and Maintenance Facility (OMF) East facility. Sound Transit and the City of Bellevue transferred the site to BRIDGE Housing in late 2024 at no cost. This property discount is foundational in supporting the project’s affordable housing outcomes. ✨ Strong partnerships and investment from the City of Bellevue, King County, and A Regional Coalition for Housing (ARCH), Amazon, WA State Department of Commerce, and the Washington State Housing Finance Commission made this project possible. The affordable homes will be for households earning 60% AMI and below—plus, 40 units will be set aside for individuals with developmental disabilities. Convenient access to transit will, connect residents to opportunities across the region, from jobs to schools to parks. 🌳🏞️ Learn more about this exciting effort (at the link in our bio). 🔗 https://ow.ly/gLos50VhFwz
