A Neighborhood on Purpose

In our cohousing community members work together to create a socially rich community that is safe, sustainable, diverse, egalitarian, supportive, attractive and affordable.

Members collaborate to plan and develop their own neighborhood. Homes are owned privately but are deliberately clustered to provide a village-like common space that is protected from vehicle traffic. There is also a common house, which typically includes dining, recreation and childcare facilities and other amenities. In our community there is no effort to establish a religious or philosophical creed; what we share is a desire to live more economically, sustainably, and cooperatively.

Architect RFQs go out

Our design committee assembled a list of architects meeting basic screening criteria and then met to winnow that list down to a manageable number of firms with the appropriate characteristics. Last week we sent out requests for qualifications (RFQs) to eleven firms. The committee will review their responses and select the top few firms to interview. After conducting the interviews, the committee will recommend that one or two of the firms meet with the membership before a final selection is made. We should have an architecture and engineering team on board in a matter of weeks. Stay tuned.
