Thomas Mayo Associates/Architects & Urban Designers were the Architects for this
Auburn Housing Authority sponsored 705-2 Family Housing component of an overall
4.5 million dollar housing project financed through the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts Executive Office of Communities & Development. This project consisted of the construction
of 12 new residential units in six duplex buildings. Each duplex contains one
two-bedroom unit and one three-bedroom unit. Groups of three duplex buildings
are clustered around two cul-de-sac "nodes" on the long and narrow
site, which allows both ends of the site to remain in a natural wooded
setting. The buildings are constructed with a concrete slab on grade and
with wood frame structure. Total
building area for the project is 15,210 square feet. The scope of this family housing project
also included site grading and drainage, new access roadways, site utilities
and site improvements, including a new playfield, and landscaping. The project was developed in close
coordination with the Town of Auburn through the Comprehensive Permit
process. |
