Arlington Drive Youth Campus

Location: Tacoma

General contractor: Korsmo Construction

The Arlington Drive Youth Campus in Tacoma provides housing and services for youths and young adults who are experiencing homelessness, making the transition from foster care, or are otherwise at risk. The campus consists of a 12-bed crisis residential center for children ages 12 to 17, and a 58-unit apartment building for homeless young adults ages 18 to 24, with about 30% of the residents being parents of babies or toddlers. The Social Impact Center of the YMCA of Greater Seattle provides on-site supportive services, and Community Youth Services provides educational resources and job training. The young adults were included in the design process for the apartment complex. The building includes elevator access, bicycle storage, office space, clinical space, a community room, computer room, laundry center, restrooms and on-site parking. The project involved multiple community and funding partners and meets the Evergreen Sustainable Development Standard.
