Someone in the comments stated the Villa at Titusville is already beginning to show signs of decay and destruction. Birmingham Housing Authority just like City of Birmingham provides housing for the least likely to excel beyond government dependency to becoming productive and sustainable citizens. Both BHA and the City of Birmingham the two entities support young women with dependent children instead of citizens who are working towards earning a higher education, entrepreneurs, and middle age to older people. The Birmingham Housing Authority and the City of Birmingham place the wrong type of people in new housing, and the citizens who take pride and care of their housing and homes are displaced and put on the back of waiting lists for housing and emergency rental assistance. Therefore, the new new communities built and in the blueprint phase will in five to ten years decay and begin to look like yesterday’s government housing projects. In retrospect, what do I know about housing, placement and displacement? https://lnkd.in/eFHnjPkc

Creative solutions at work to address a critical need. Well done!

There's more to solving the affordability crisis than "just build more." We can work with you to create a strategy that balances new affordable housing development with available infrastructure and environmental considerations, resulting in a sustainable and resilient community. #AffordableHousing #Planning #CommunityResilience

We at CWA and CES understand how important collaboration is when attempting to address and solve complicated problems. It's for that reason that we'd like to share the Michigan Association of Planning's (MAP) new initiative, "Stories and Studies." This very useful project is being curated from a 2023 survey where "(MAP) members and Redevelopment Ready Communities (RRC) were queried in order to find out whether and how the tools in the (Zoning Reform Toolkit: 15 Tools to Expand Housing Choice + Supply Toolkit) are helping to expand housing choice and supply in Michigan communities."

this is exactly the kind of projects we need throughout our Rural communities! Brilliant thinking in this context, and another example of the affordable good that can come from adaptive reuse design strategies in created much needed housing! #affordablehousing #adaptivereuse #Wisconsineconomicdevelopment #ruraldevelopnent

Rightly so we are fixated on Sustainability. Too often the main focus is on the environmental aspects of ESG. As Tamae illustrates in this example, the S or Social in ESG is vitally important and remedying the poor practices of the past is essential in ensuring we create thriving and connected cities and communities.

Maryland is embarking on a transformative journey to reshape urban living! ????? The state's transportation and housing departments have inked a groundbreaking agreement aimed at boosting transit-oriented development. By prioritizing housing near transit stations, Maryland seeks to achieve housing, climate, and economic development goals simultaneously. This "win-win" initiative, as coined by Transportation Secretary Paul J. Wiedefeld, focuses on converting large parking lots into vibrant mixed-use sites, benefiting both the environment and local communities. Imagine more vibrant neighborhoods around Odenton and Bowie State! ?? Key benefits include: 1. Lower housing costs 2. Increased public transit use 3. Reduced climate impacts This partnership aligns with recent ambitious housing policies and reflects leadership from the top, aiming to address longstanding issues like Baltimore's vacant housing crisis. It's a bold step towards a more connected and sustainable urban future. How do you see transit-oriented development transforming your community?

I am deeply privileged to be part of the project 'Housing the Nation: Social Equity, Architecture, and the Future of Affordable Housing' alongside my wonderful colleague, Dean Draznin. Curated by the visionary minds of Alexander Gorlin, and Victoria Newhouse, this groundbreaking book serves as a rallying cry, uniting a chorus of intellectuals, activists, humanitarians and designers to look closely at America's dire affordable housing dilemma. Brace yourselves as we embark on a mission to thrust this critical issue into the spotlight and spark urgent action. We are just getting started.. https://lnkd.in/eych4sMm

Outdated zoning systems and the associated metrics often have negative connotations that hinder the implementation of modern housing solutions. Don't say the D word! In his keynote for the Groundwork NWA Annual Housing Summit in Arkansas, Daniel Parolek highlighted how shifting housing priorities also call for rethinking the discussions around housing and zoning reform, the need for diverse housing choices in the current market, and tools that can help implement Missing Middle Housing solutions in both the private and public sectors. Key Insights: - Using real-life stories helps people understand the significance of missing middle housing and frame it as a real solution. - Feasibility, attainability, and livability are essential factors in enabling missing middle housing options. - Comprehensive approaches such as Missing Middle Scans and Deep Dives? and the Missing Middle Zoning Toolkit assist cities and developers in navigating the implementation of these housing solutions. - Collaboration among developers, policymakers, and advocacy groups is essential for addressing the housing crisis. #Density #ZoningReform https://lnkd.in/ewukNhMT
