When Vashon Household identified the need for affordable senior housing on Vashon Island, Common Ground helped them finance and build a project using HUD's Section 202 program.  Typical apartments at J.G. Commons are 550 square feet with an airy, open floor plan. The building features 21 modern one-bedroom apartments suitable for singles and couples. J.G. Commons includes a community room, lounge area, conference room, on-site laundry, and an elevator for wheelchair accessibility.  These affordable units are located two blocks from Vashon’s town center and within walking distance of public transportation, stores, parks, the library and other amenities.
