The Docks that make up the Dox Cooperative:

We are happy to show you homes on the Dox Cooperative docks and also excited to share why this is such a great Seattle floating homes community to live in.  There are so many perks to enjoying the lifestyle of living on water while still being close in to the city – no need to have a car for one. This is also an ideal location for people wanting to relocate to Seattle to work for companies like Amazon.  Eastlake has a lot to offer in ways of night life and restaurants, too, but if you want to keep to yourself, then simply take advantage of restaurant delivery services such as the one offered by Amazon for instance.
