In Feb/March 2022, mere months after the owners moved in, they started seeing cracks in the foundations and sidewalks as the retaining wall slowly gave out and caused the homes to sink about 10 inches in less than a year after completion. While this year's abnormally high snowpack certainly contributed, the land was already sliding not long after construction was completed late 2021. Here, towards the end, you can see where the instability is threatening another adjacent home, which has already been evacuated and is anticipated to also collapse soon.

Such a terrible thing to have occurred, but at least no one has been injured or suffered loss of life as a result of this developmental negligence. The builder, Edge Homes, has indicated that they do not plan to rebuild and will leave the collapsed section open-hopefully with a better retaining wall to keep the rest of the neighborhood from following suit. They were able to get some, but not all, of their belongings moved out before the collapse occurred a few months after the evacuation order. Certificates of occupancy were revoked a few months later, in Nov 2022-barely a year after they first moved in-and they were forced to evacuate.
