Mayor Jenny A. Durkan announces that the City of Seattle will invest $110 million to create 1,944 new affordable homes in neighborhoods across Seattle, the largest investment and the largest number of affordable homes ever created in Seattle in one year in our City's history. 

The 2019 funds invested through the City's Office of Housing will support the construction of thirteen new buildings in Seattle and will support a range of communities, including seniors, low-wage workers and families and people experiencing homelessness. Several of the new affordable housing buildings will include ground floor spaces to benefit the residents of the new buildings and the surrounding community - childcare, a senior health center, and community spaces.
