Alder Pointe Apartments is a 180-unit development nestled in the fast-growing commercial area of Battle Ground, Washington. With plenty of green spaces, walking paths, and an array of family-friendly amenities, the project was completed with the growing local population in mind.

The complex contains three-story buildings with 24-units each, ranging in size from two to three bedrooms. It also includes double-story buildings with garages below second-floor apartments and dedicated garage buildings. The units over the garages are considered “starter” units and are smaller in size, geared towards singles and young professionals. The garden-style apartments are minimalist by design, focusing on clean lines and elegant interior finishes, which are contrasted by the natural features outside. 

One of the challenges faced was the existence of a wetland on the site, which we helped the owner navigate with a combination of remediation processes. This meant preserving and removing parts of it to the overall benefit of the site and buildings. Our approach to any natural feature is to work within the boundaries of the landscape and look for solutions that introduce as little intervention as possible.
