120 units of permanent housing opening in Seattle's Lake City neighborhood

opened doors to its"Sacred Medicine House," an apartment complex in Seattle's Lake City neighborhood dedicated to permanently housing people experiencing homelessness. James Lovell, Chief Seattle Club's development director, said the 120-unit new construction prioritizes serving residents who might be in recovery. For example, stoves have auto-shutoff features in case someone falls asleep or loses consciousness while cooking.

The building is also filled with murals done by Indigenous artists. Chief Seattle Club's Executive Director Derrick Belgarde said it's an intentional decision to help Native American residents feel seen. He projects the majority of their residents will be indigenous, as the Native population is disproportionately impacted by homelessness.
