Affordable Housing Demonstration: A Case Study, Everett, Washington
This report describes the Affordable Demonstration Housing Project constructed in Everett, Wash., as part of HUD's Joint Venture for Affordable Housing. The project brought builders and local officials together to identify ways to reduce the cost of housing and to modify or interpret local building codes and site development regulations so that these methods could be used. The project is located on 20.4 level acres surrounded by heavily wooded land and easily accessible to downtown Everett and other local employment centers. The 81-unit development uses a zero-lot-line configuration, with one site of the unit on the lot line. Designed to create a feeling of openness, the homes have vaulted ceilings, living areas opening onto outdoor patios, decks enclosed by cedar fences, freestanding fireplaces, and greenhouse windows. All homes have double garages. The three single-family detached models range from 1,076 to 1,624 square feet and are priced from $64,500 to $76,500. Costs saved through reduced regulations and changes from normal building and development practices totaled $10,047 per unit. Photographs, diagrams, data tables, and appendixes presenting house plans, the project schedule, and project personnel are supplied. (Author abstract modified).
