Many front doors
Seven apartment houses anchor the block while sixteen individual townhouses complete its edges. Three- and four-story buildings vary the silhouette without losing the identity of each address.

Court.
Individual homes. A shared garden.
Apartment houses and townhouses around a shared garden
A study in development
Apartment houses and townhouses form a small neighborhood around a planted courtyard, bringing a varied New England street edge to a 1.39-acre site.

The current program comprises seven apartment houses and sixteen townhouses. The 52-home count is a preliminary area schedule; individual room layouts and roof headroom remain to be resolved.
01 / EXPLORE THE ARCHITECTURE
A neighborhood of individual buildings.
Turn the block, explore the courtyard,
or inspect an individual address.

New England character
Masonry, painted clapboard, projecting bays and carefully framed windows create a family of related buildings. Gables, dormers and parapets give the roofline a varied rhythm.
A garden at the center
A courtyard of approximately 15,042 square feet includes about 11,479 square feet of planted green. Paths and garden-facing buildings bring shared outdoor space close to home.
02 / THE SITE & THE COURTYARD
One small block, planned as a whole.
Buildings, entrances and a planted center
form a coordinated courtyard neighborhood.
A place within the block.
The courtyard organizes the plan. Smaller buildings and inward-facing fronts frame its perimeter, while a corner arcade and porch give the street edge a sheltered threshold.
A study still taking shape.
The baseline parking schedule has 47 spaces: 28 garages and 19 parallel spaces. Access, grade and parking requirements are still under review. The mapped site is a planning reference, not a boundary survey.
