Plans underway for nearby Parker’s Landing Public Park We see financial returns as an outcome of delivering a project that is openly embraced and celebrated by the community.” “Our driving mission and focus is to create positive community impacts through the conduit of real estate. “We’re hoping to add one synergistic layer to the community investment that has already occurred in Camas and Washougal with their downtowns, with the connectivity that has been or will be put in place with trails and parks and community amenities,” Killian said. Killian said that, considering single-family housing has spurred Camas-Washougal’s growth over the past several decades, Ninebark represents an opportunity to “provide a product that has been underrepresented in the market from a development and inventory perspective.” “Although we have developed in Camas and Washougal throughout the years, this is certainly a very special project, not only for the company but from a family perspective.” “My mom and dad grew up in Camas and Washougal, and my family generally has always had roots in southwest Washington, and still does,” said Killian, the company’s owner and chief visionary officer. Lance Killian has a deeply personal connection to his property development company’s latest project, which he said he hopes will become a “timeless” and “authentic” component of the revamped Washougal waterfront and positive community asset for decades to come. “And with our emphasis on sustainability, diversity, equity and inclusion, and art, we have the opportunity to create a place that achieves significant social impact for the area.” “The Port of Camas-Washougal’s master plan will further enrich the area with a public marina, park, additional restaurants, retail and commercial spaces to make this area an even more desirable waterfront destination,” Slick said. “Unmatched amenities, strong sustainability goals, and a desire for lasting social impact make working on this project and collaborating with the development team at Killian Pacific a pleasure.”įollowing the guidelines of its three “pillars,” Killian Pacific will use sustainable, locally sourced wood, target a sustainability certification while aiming for carbon neutrality, favor biophilic design, provide affordable housing units and incorporate local and regional art into the design. “The natural surroundings, adjacency to parks and connection to the existing trail system allow for a strong connection to the outdoors,” Kevin Valk, of Holst, said in the press release. Portland-based Holst Architecture is designing the community, which will feature 242 one-, two- and three-bedroom units across eight three-story apartment buildings a variety of amenities, including a freestanding clubhouse, lounge, “gear shed” and fitness center connections to parks, trails and eventually the Port’s adjacent waterfront development and expansive views of the Columbia River and Mount Hood. With the first waterfront community in Camas-Washougal, we aim to attract people who are seeking an escape to nature and a smaller, welcoming community but do not want to sacrifice curated amenities such as local breweries, coffee shops and restaurants that are important for their lifestyle.” “We see Southwest Washington gaining in popularity due to job growth in the technology, healthcare and financial sectors, and the area offers high-quality schools and tax advantages over Oregon. “With Ninebark, we envision a sustainable, equitable and accessible waterfront community that offers an experience, with access to nature and amenities alike, that is unlike anything else in the market,” Michi Slick, Killian Pacific’s director of development, said in a news release. The residential community will be located on a 9-acre parcel located along the Columbia River near Parker’s Landing, in between Camas’ and Washougal’s downtown centers. Developers working on Ninebark, a three-story, 242-unit residential complex to be built east of the Port of Camas-Washougal, hope to begin construction on the complex’s eight buildings in the fall of 2021 and open its first apartments in the fall of 2022.
