The next phase of the Sammamish Town Center project is now underway, bringing to the area additional housing and commercial retail space for restaurants, a pub, and other retailers, the city of Sammamish has announced.
The city and Innovation Realty Partners held a groundbreaking ceremony on May 18 to celebrate the project's continuation.
The next phase of the center will include 86 townhomes, of which six will be designated as affordable housing. The core mixed-use area will feature roughly 300 multifamily units, including 77 affordable units and a senior living community, as well commercial retail space for restaurants, a pub, and other retail locations.
“The Town Center will provide more restaurants, shops, commercial spaces, and gathering places to serve Sammamish residents. It will make our city more walkable, connect trails and promote transit usage. In addition, affordable units, homes for first-time buyers, and downsizing options are vital components of a well-rounded, intergenerational community,” said Sammamish Mayor Kali Clark in a press statement. “Places that unite communities are more important now than ever before.”
In 2015, Innovation Realty Partners, on behalf of STCA, started the multiyear process of assembling 90-plus acres for development. The planning, designing, and creation of the Sammamish Town Center is taking place in multiple phases over a period of several years.
