King County Executive Girmay Zahilay, BRIDGE Housing, Community Roots Housing, and community members celebrated the grand opening of Copperleaf Northgate (Copperleaf), a new transit-oriented affordable housing community with 235 apartments in Seattle’s Northgate neighborhood. The project reflects King County’s ongoing investment in transit-oriented development, including the contribution of public land and $30 million in transit-oriented development funding to help bring the project to fruition.

“This is the largest investment King County has made in affordable housing, and reflects our commitment to building a region where everyone has access to a safe, stable home,” said King County Executive Girmay Zahilay. “I’m grateful to BRIDGE Housing, Community Roots Housing, and our many partners for making Copperleaf possible. Together, we’re building housing that meets the diverse needs of our community and ensures more people have access to safe, stable housing connected to transit and opportunity.” Read more.
