Nestled into a tight site between a pedestrian greenway and a busy vehicle corridor, this supportive housing project takes its visual cues from the surrounding brick buildings. When built, the project will provide critical housing, community garden space, and amenity services for residents. As a precedent-setting steel modular tower, this Passive House project will be affordable to build and to operate. Providing long-term durability and resilience for both people and the planet were key performance drivers for this project.
