This project was a collaboration between New Atlantic and the Concord Housing Trust, a non-profit organization dedicated to increasing the diversity of the Town of Concord  through the sponsorship of high quality affordable housing development.  The village-like clusters of new homes were designed by architect Holly Darzen of Linea 5, inc. to reflect historic house forms found in older New England communities like Concord - and to be built in a factory outside Poughkeepsie, New York.  The new three bedroom homes were sold at prices between $150,000 and $300,000 to families earning between 80% and 140% of Boston area median income.  New Atlantic served as developer and construction manager for the project.  See the ULI case study on Elm Brook Homes.
