Construction at Prisma continues to move forward, and we’re excited to share our latest aerial update from our partners at Walsh Construction.

Thanks to monthly drone footage, we can watch this future community take shape from a unique perspective. With each update, the progress becomes more visible as Prisma rises from the ground up.

When complete, Prisma will provide 328 affordable homes in Redmond, just steps from the Overlake Light Rail Station, creating greater access to housing, transit, and opportunity.

We’re grateful to everyone helping bring this vision to life and look forward to sharing more milestones as construction continues throughout the summer.

Seattle is facing a growing affordable housing challenge:

🏠 Nearly half of Seattle renters are considered cost-burdened, meaning they spend more than 30% of their income on housing.

Stable, affordable housing creates stronger communities, healthier families, and greater opportunity for everyone.

At Bellwether Housing, we believe housing is the foundation for people to thrive and we’re committed to creating and preserving affordable homes across Seattle.

Access to reliable transit can change everything.

Living near the Link Light Rail means shorter commutes, more job opportunities, and more time for what matters most.

That’s why Bellwether Housing prioritizes housing in transit-connected neighborhoods; residents can stay connected to opportunity without the burden of long or costly commutes.

Affordable housing and transportation go hand in hand. When one works, the other does too.

Many of our current buildings as well as our Prisma building currently in development in Redmond, The Confluence and Cedar Crossing are only steps away from the Sound Transit Light Rail!
