Tours
Neighborhood House offers three kinds of tours: docent-led and self-guided tours of the High Point Center, and self-guided tours of the surrounding High Point community.
Tours of the High Point Center will guide you throughout the building’s three levels and its environmentally sustainable features. Both the docent-led and self-guided tours will highlight features such as Washington state’s largest solar panel array, the triple-paned windows and a variety of other building features.

Tours of the High Point community will take you on a pleasant stroll around the neighborhood that has won numerous local, state, national and international awards for design and sustainability. The self-guided tours highlight the neighborhood's sustainable features such as asthma-free homes, porous concrete sidewalks and a retention pond.

Immigrant, refugee and low-income communities are often left out of the green revolution despite suffering a disproportionate share of environmental degradation. The Neighborhood House High Point Center seeks to break this cycle with environmental programming designed for the High Point community, beginning with tours in a variety of languages spoken in the neighborhood.
