The project also incorporates social services for tenants in transition from foster care, and residents with physical disabilities. A second floor courtyard, community rooms and a shared kitchen provide safe and comfortable place to gather. The building promotes healthy living and resource conservation by incorporating sustainable materials and energy efficient systems into the design. It serves as a model of how new development can provide multiple layers of benefit to the residents, the community and to the environment.
