Eliot Church Affordable Housing receives the 2024 Chicago Athenaeum & Global Design News – Future House International Residential Award
Eliot Church Affordable Housing has won the Future House International Residential Award in the Affordable, Social, and Community Living Housing category. Affordable housing at Eliot Congregational Church will help the underserved community of Roxbury, a neighborhood of Boston, MA. A 4-story, 15-unit addition will occupy the 4,500sf portion of the site, currently a parking lot. The project’s scale is consistent with triple deckers and other multi-family housing in the neighborhood and is intended to be a prototype with multiple roof profiles, façade arrangements and cladding materials that can be tailored to similar small-scale developments on empty smaller lots across Boston.
“Future House International Residential Awards arise from the convergence of residential design and architectural vision, with the aim of championing and honoring novel and inventive residential projects on a worldwide level.” – Chicago Athenaeum & Global Design News – Future House International Residential Award
