In Seattle, a group of friends wanted to live together-so they built their own apartment building
Briefly

Around ten years ago, Chad Dale noticed friends leaving Seattle due to high living costs. Instead of opting for single-family homes, Dale, a developer, proposed a communal living solution. He and a group of friends and families decided to construct a new apartment building in Seattle's Phinney Ridge neighborhood, offering a diverse range of unit sizes and communal spaces. Their project included shared yards, rooftop decks, and gardens, ultimately creating a supportive community for families while addressing urban living challenges, resulting in completion in 2023.
The shared living project enables a sense of community that enhances the living experience, addressing both space and social needs for families.
Dale emphasized how shared spaces mean not just saving costs, but also enhancing life experiences through communal living and interaction among families.
