New Urbanism on the West Coast by Seattle magazine.

“Seabrook was founded in 2004 by developers Casey and Laura Roloff, who fell in love with the idea of creating a community that was walkable, architecturally pleasing, and built around knowing your neighbors. The idea was inspired by Seaside, Florida, which went from being an undesirable place to live to one of the most coveted haunts on the east coast. The couple developed Seabrook in part out of a selfish desire to create the kind of community they wanted their kids to grow up in. “We were attracted to walkability and independence for our kids,” Casey says.”

Discover Seabrook, WA: a walkable coastal utopia just 2.5 hours from Seattle. Explore why this car-free beach town is the ultimate family getaway.

The work of the SEASIDE Institute™ reaches far beyond the 80 acres that the town of SEASIDE® occupies.

Our research invites experts to explore new ideas that help community leaders with solution based implementation. Our programs inspire new growth that encourages sustainable living.

Our Seaside Prize recipients, aka: board of fellows members inspire us as much as we inspire them.
