A neighborhood HUB - rooted in Hope, Unity, and Belonging - providinglearning, sharing, and affordable living spaces for working families.

The White Center HUB (Hope Unity Belonging) is the "Big Idea" of the White Center Community Development Authority, whose mission is to promote a high quality of life for neighborhood residents. Located on the site of a former public health center and food bank, the HUB includes a 4-story multi-family housing structure with 76 affordable units, and a 25,000 square foot community center to house organizations, social services, and community amenities.

Environmental stewardship is an important goal for the project. The design team is taking on the challenges of meeting a net-zero energy housing design, engaging with Seattle City Light to remove barriers on virtual net metering and load shifting, and building synergies with King County departments and Parks to foster cross agency collaborations. The Community Building is designed to achieve LEED Silver Certification and the Salmon Safe Certification for the site.
