Big garages, smart home tech part of homebuilder's next Pierce County project
New homes are coming to an area between Spanaway and Frederickson from a regional builder that's built other small neighborhoods in Pierce County.
Clover Creek Court is the latest planned development from Pacific Lifestyle Homes in the area of 3023 Military Road E., at the intersection of Waller Road East at the edge of Frederickson.
The cul-de-sac community will feature nine new homes, between 1,805 and 2,527 square feet, with lots ranging from 5,915 to 9,960 square feet. Floor plans will include single-level ramblers as well as homes offering 3- and 4-car garages.
The homes will include custom-built designer cabinets, slab countertops, stainless-steel appliances, primary shower and soaking tub, 9- to 12-foot ceilings on the first floor and smart home technology (programmable lights, climate control, locks and Amazon Echo device), as well as landscaping.
Prices will start at the mid-$600,000's. The development is in the Franklin Pierce School District.
'These home sites are larger than other builders are offering, also we are excited to offer more of our single-level living home designs. They are very popular with our customers,' Matt Lewis, Puget Sound president of Pacific Lifestyle Homes, said in a statement.
Pacific Lifestyle has a design studio next to its Tacoma office, 4802 Tacoma Blvd., where home buyers can work with a designer to select their house's interior finishes.
Pacific Lifestyle Homes launched in 1996 and has built thousands of homes in the greater Portland/Vancouver area. In 2013, the Vancouver, Washington-based company entered the Puget Sound market. It has built more than 700 homes across King, Pierce, Thurston and Kitsap counties.
The company includes both the Pacific Lifestyle Homes and Garrette Custom Homes brands. Pacific Lifestyle's other projects in the area include Summer Lane in University Place, Aster Point in Edgewood, Acorn Park near Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Austin Court, south of Fort Steilacoom Park and McCormick Trails near Port Orchard.

Ford Has Picked a Chassis Supplier for Its 2027 Le Mans Hypercar Plans
Ford has selected sports car manufacturer Oreca as the chassis supplier for its upcoming LMDh project, setting the stage for a run at the overall 24 Hours of Le Mans win in 2027. The brand's Friday announcement also noted that Dan Sayers has joined the project as program manager. The deal means that Ford will be the fourth manufacturer to partner with Oreca, joining Acura, Alpine, and Genesis: Acura currently races the Oreca-based ARX-06 in IMSA; Alpine runs the A424 in the FIA World Endurance Championship; and Genesis plans to enter both over the next two years with their GMR-001. Since LMDh rules require teams to build their car around a safety cell from one of four approved chassis manufacturers, this means that the Ford will share some common parts with all of those cars. Most of the vehicle will be unique to Ford, however, including the engine. Sayers joins the now Oreca-affiliated prototype project directly from Red Bull Powertrains, a Ford-aligned group that will be building engines and hybrid systems for the energy drink brand's two Formula 1 teams. His responsibility will be getting the new racer from conception to the 2027 season opener — a daunting challenge that has led to early struggles for many current LMH and LMDh manufacturers on the grid at Le Mans for the 2025 event. While these announcements bring Ford closer to its return to the top class at Le Mans, some major questions remain. The brand still has not announced a partner team or official plans to build its own factory team, let alone the drivers. Ford has also only announced plans for the Europe-based FIA World Endurance Championship, meaning that the American manufacturer's long-awaited GT40 successor is not actually set to race in the U.S.-based IMSA championship just yet. An engine layout has also not been shared, although Ford Performance global director Mark Rushbrook mentioned in February that the brand had decided on a total cylinder count for its final race car. Those details will trickle out over the next two years. Until then, Oreca and Sayers will get to work helping Ford get their new prototype on the track.

Consumer sentiment rose in June for 1st time this year as inflation remains stayed tame
WASHINGTON (AP) — Consumer sentiment increased in June for the first time in six months, the latest sign that Americans' views of the economy have improved as inflation has stayed tame and the Trump administration has reached a truce in its trade fight with China. The preliminary reading of the University of Michigan's closely watched consumer sentiment index, released Friday, jumped 16% to 60.5. The large increase followed steady drops that left the preliminary number last month at the second-lowest level in the nearly 75-year history of the survey. Consumer sentiment is still down 20% compared with December 2024. 'Consumers appear to have settled somewhat from the shock of the extremely high tariffs announced in April and the policy volatility seen in the weeks that followed,' Joanne Hsu, director of the survey, said in a written statement. 'However, consumers still perceive wide-ranging downside risks to the economy.' Americans have largely taken a darker view of the economy's future after President Donald Trump unleashed a wide-ranging trade war, imposing steep tariffs on China, the European Union, and dozens of other countries. Yet in April Trump postponed a set of sweeping tariffs on about 60 nations and last month reached a temporary truce with China, after both sides had sharply ratcheted up tariffs on each other. U.S. duties remain elevated compared with historical levels, but so far they have not worsened overall inflation.
