The Project

This project consists of 72 units of affordable housing built above an existing 1960's exposed concrete structure. the objective of 'The Project' is to provide high quality, affordable housing that does not stigmatize the transitional neighbourhood by appearing like sub-standard, low-rent housing and aims to return modern design to its noble roots in social improvement.
