What we’re about
Everyone who spends their days in Kirkland should be able to call Kirkland home.
We are working with our neighbors throughout Kirkland to create a shared vision for the future of our neighborhoods. The objective of this vision is to create homes for everyone while improving sustainability and quality of life. We realize that the key to achieving this vision is to focus this growth into complete communities where people can meet their routine needs without needing to drive, all connected with efficient transportation.

COFFEE, BIKES, and FRIENDS
Bike, walk, or roll to join us for #coffeeoutside! Bring your coffee (you can even make it there if you bring some camping coffee equipment), or bring your mug and share coffee with someone else. We'll definitely have extra coffee so don't let that stop you!
#CoffeeOutside: a loosely defined social phenomenon whereby cycling enthusiasts meet at a specified time and location to hand-make coffee, enjoy snacks and meet with friends, outside, oftentimes despite the weather.
