PORT TOWNSEND, Wash. - ncarol.com -- PORT TOWNSEND, WA – Habitat for Humanity of East Jefferson County (Habitat EJC) has selected two acclaimed firms for project management and architectural design to help lead the effort in designing and planning a permanently affordable, mixed single and multi-family community in Port Hadlock-Irondale, WA.
Habitat will draw upon the vast experience of both Cap Ex Advisory Group of Baltimore, MD and Seattle, WA architectural firm, Schemata Workshop, to help in the development of an implementable and financially feasible master plan for this envisioned neighborhood.
Schemata Workshop leads the design and planning of the community; Cap Ex Advisory develops the financial and supporting work. Both firms are working closely with, and at the direction of, Habitat to bring this vision to reality.
Jamie Maciejewski, Executive Director of Habitat's East Jefferson County affiliate, noted, "We're developing partnerships with local businesses and organizations now so we can realize the dream of a beautiful, vibrant neighborhood, providing affordable housing opportunities for our local workforce and community." She added, "Cap Ex and Schemata Workshop will play key roles in helping us deliver on that dream."
Working with donors and the Jefferson Community Foundation (JCF), Habitat EJC purchased the 17.12-acre parcel in Port Hadlock-Irondale, Jefferson County, in 2022, and will oversee the development of the project's master plan over the next year.
Tim Pula, Cap Ex project lead, said, "We are excited by the opportunity to collaborate with Habitat and the community to create a vision for a sustainable, ecologically responsible neighborhood that helps address the significant need for affordable housing."

The 17-acre community is intended to include 140-170 homes that are affordable to a wide range of families and individuals who live and work in Jefferson County. The Request for Proposal (RFP) for professional services to support the creation of the master plan stated, "The results of this project will serve as a lasting means of providing dignified housing to those who live there."
Bob Collins, Habitat's Director of Construction, Land and Strategy, echoed those sentiments saying, "We believe our selection process was fair but rigorous. We were looking for experience, yes, but also an informed and shared commitment to the Habitat for Humanity vision of creating community."
With the selection of Cap Ex and Schemata Workshop, the project was officially launched over the summer. The development of the master plan in the coming months will be significantly influenced through a proactive schedule of community outreach.
Architect Grace Kim of Schemata Workshop noted that their company is no stranger to this kind of undertaking, "Our firm specializes in translating community vision into implementable plans. Our design process includes authentic community engagement, finding stakeholder alignment, and advancing a project that responds to the needs of the community. We are excited to work in collaboration with Habitat to design a neighborhood that is not only affordable but is walkable, with generous open spaces that foster neighborly interactions while respecting the existing ecology of the site."
Next steps in community outreach will involve public forums where the community is both updated on the planning process and invited to provide feedback as the master plan evolves. These public sessions are open to anyone and are scheduled for December and January.
