An existing overgrown lot in Brooklyn’s Bushwick neighborhood, is transformed into a new affordable housing complex consisting of the construction of (2) new buildings and the rehabilitation of an existing 3-story building. The three buildings, totaling 100,000 square feet, consist of 78 apartments, community facility spaces, recreation areas and office spaces. The two new buildings were designed in order to achieve Passive House Certification, with ultra-tight building envelopes and high insulation values, resulting in very low heating and cooling requirements.
