Thank you for your interest in joining Habitat for Humanity of East Jefferson County in cleaning up the Mason Street Property (the old airstrip) in Port Hadlock!
Thank you to everyone who came out in December to help clean up the site. You removed more than 3 tons of debris!
Bringing Permanently Affordable Housing to Mason Street in Port Hadlock
Together, we evaluated the purchase of a 17-acre parcel of land in Port Hadlock dedicated to permanently affordable, mixed-income, workforce housing. On May 10, 2022, Habitat EJC’s Board of Directors approved the purchase of the land and on May 23, 2022 the purchase was completed.
We envision an attractive and vibrant neighborhood of mixed single and multi-family housing adjacent to Chimacum Creek Primary School and close to Jefferson County Library with amenities such as community gardens, green spaces, and child care opportunities that create community and blend into and enhance the Tri-Area.
The parcel has the potential to support more than 120 homes for families who work in our community and whose children attend our schools, as well as folks like first responders, teachers, nurses, and retail workers.
We will explore a new way of working, where many partners come together to envision and build a new neighborhood, one that builds community and fits into the surrounding area. It is an exciting opportunity to dream big, use our imagination, and collaborate at an unprecedented scale for the future of our community.
Members of the community brought this project to JCF and Habitat, asking us to become involved in creating affordable housing on this parcel of land. In turn, we are reaching out to the community to listen to what the hopes and needs are and, in collaboration, we will make an affordable housing neighborhood a reality.
