625 Winslow Way E.

​

​

Low Income Housing Institute (LIHI) is hosting a community listening session on a proposed affordable housing community at 625 Winslow Way E., on Bainbridge Island. We are proposing a 4-story building that will include approximately 90 units of affordable workforce housing serving families and individuals. There will be commercial space at street level. Apartments will be affordable for households earning up to 60% of the area median income. In Kitsap County a four person household earning 60% of the area median income is $65,300/year.

 

According to the National Community Survey, Bainbridge Island scored in the bottom 3% of the national benchmark for availability of affordable housing. Grocery clerks, retail workers, cooks, landscapers, sales associates, health care workers, and many other essential workers cannot afford to live in the community where they work.

 

This workforce housing proposal would significantly expand the supply of affordable housing for Bainbridge Island. We are inviting members of the community to provide their input on the design of the building, and meet the developer, city leaders, and architects to answer questions about the project.

The meeting will take place:
 

Thursday, May 29, 2025 at 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm

Bainbridge Performing Arts Center 

200 Madison Avenue North, Bainbridge Island, WA 98110 

Refreshments will be served

​

 

Join us next Thursday at 3:00 PM in person and share your thoughts!
