Grand Pacific Apartments

Award-Winning Urban Townhome Development

Grand Pacific Apartments are an award-winning urban infill project that transformed less than one acre of R-3 zoned land into a vibrant, thoughtfully planned 14-unit townhome community in Vancouver, WA. Designed by Swerhone Architecture, the project balances smart urban design, visual appeal, and inclusive living options.

The development features street-facing front porches, rear-loaded garages, and a rare fully ADA-compliant single-level townhome—a meaningful step toward more inclusive urban housing. This unit ensures accessibility without sacrificing style or community integration.

A standout design solution involved gracefully transitioning between the single-story ADA home and adjacent three-story townhomes. By incorporating a bonus room above the accessible garage, the team maintained a cohesive roofline while maximizing interior space and meeting local planning requirements. This innovative massing strategy improves the urban streetscape and enhances livability for all residents.

Grandview Commons is a model of efficient, inclusive, and community-focused urban development, offering both functionality and lasting value in a growing neighborhood.
