Neighborcare Health Rainier Beach Clinic

A community health center that honors the neighborhood and its culture.

The Rainier Beach Clinic is located at a prominent arterial intersection in South Seattle and creates a strong landmark for the organization’s medical, dental and counseling services as well as meeting rooms for community groups and affiliated organizations. The Health Center anchors a re-developing commercial center, with strong urban connections to the local high school, middle school, community center and library. The site provided a number of challenges including a subterranean creek running beneath the structure and soft soils which required the installation of a pile foundation.


Neighborcare embraces family-centered care and the building reflects a transition to a “medical home” model to improve patient care outcomes. The two-story structure is inviting and accessible, using extensive glazing, exposed structural elements and warm finish materials to put visitors at ease. The building achieved LEED Silver.
