I went to Seattle and toured around a number of new communities. A few were nice infill projects replacing community housing, others were brand spanking new and located far out of the city. I personally feel they are a dramatic improvement from traditional suburban development … but, hey, you be the judge.
Enjoy!
High Point - West Seattle.
Issaquah Highlands - East of Seattle. This development uses all sorts of new urbanist/neo-traditional styles with a bunch of home builders making for some nice variety. It is hard to tell whether the commercial area (which I didn't get any shots of, sorry) will sustain the community, and hopefully grow over time. I guess time will tell.
This area had internal paths to access the homes with shared parking on the periphery. The parking buildings are the deep red ones with granny flats on the second story:
Rainier Vista - Columbia Way and MLK Way, South Seattle
