Bringing People Together to Build Homes, Communities, and Hope
We’re Building Neighborhoods
The need for affordable housing is dire in East Jefferson County. We are stepping up to meet that need.
Landes Terrace
Built in the paired-home style, Landes Terrace is a thoughtfully designed 14-home neighborhood in Port Townsend. This site furthers Habitat for Humanity of East Jefferson County’s mission to create permanently affordable, connected, and community-oriented housing.
The Mason Street Neighborhood
Mason Street will be an attractive and vibrant neighborhood, providing affordable homeownership opportunities in East Jefferson County, particularly for the local workforce. The physical design will offer a welcoming, walkable neighborhood emphasizing internal social interaction while enhancing connectivity for the surrounding community. We envision Mason Street to be a valuable addition to the broader community offering housing solutions that support local schools and businesses, and addressing the pressing housing shortage faced in the Tri-Area.
Landes Terrace:
14 Homes for 14 Families
Construction is underway at Landes Terrace, Habitat’s largest neighborhood to date in East Jefferson County.
Fourteen permanently affordable homes are under construction, creating a place where local families can stay, grow, and put down roots, with homes designed to:
- Feel neighborly and connected
- Be located near transit, schools, parks, and groceries
- Support family wellness through reduced stress and healthy, energy-efficient homes
Give today to help bring these homes to life. Your support helps ensure families can stay in the community they love, with stability, security, and a place to call home.
When neighbors come together to build homes, they also build community, and your gift makes it possible.
