67 units planned for affordable housing complex in Everett

Housing Hope broke ground Tuesday on a 67-unit apartment building in downtown Everett for adults age 55 and older. The nonprofit developer, which builds affordable housing across Snohomish County, plans to start construction this fall. Bayside Landing is scheduled to open in 2028.

The apartments at 2624 Rockefeller Avenue will serve households across a range of income levels, according to Housing Hope's website. The site formerly held the Everett United Church of Christ. Church members told The Daily Herald in an interview that the congregation had a goal of building housing there since the 1950s, when the church's building was rebuilt. The church sold the property to Housing Hope in July 2024 for about $1.78 million, a reduced price, Snohomish County property records show.

Housing Hope described its work in a blog post Wednesday. "All of us at Housing Hope are so excited to begin this next chapter in affordable housing for our agency," the post said. "Bayside Landing is another example of how we are tackling the housing and affordability crisis through a bold, dynamic approach to bring new models with new funding structures to the region."

Construction is expected to begin this fall.
