Cohousing Project To Start In Brooklyn, N.Y.

by Kristen Banker on December 2, 2008 in Green Building

In good times, people trying to start something like a cohousing project have trouble competing with developers for land. In times like these, there are a lot of developers under water who are happy to unload sites, to idealists.

That’s what is happening in Brooklyn, where a group is buying a project, (formerly 40 high end condos), and planning to build a cohousing unit.

There are many benefits to cohousing as many are designed so that the spaces can adapt to different needs as one ages. This is a good time to be thinking about it. Treehugger has the full story and it’s worth heading over to check out.
