Best affordable housing design for Global Awards shortlisted
LOS ANGELES: The shortlist for the best affordable seniors housing design has been declared.
Over 250 designs have been considered by the awards secretariat. One of the finalists in this category is shown above.
Seventy new affordable housing opportunities have been unlocked for South Australians at Bowden thanks to a new partnership between Renewal SA and Community Services Provider UnitingSA, which will further increase the diversity of quality residential stock within Adelaide’s inner-city ring.
Known as Uniting on Second, the all-affordable apartment project will be developed by UnitingSA, and will cater for the likes of essential workers, first home buyers, single parents and downsizers, who can draw on the benefits of the project’s proximity to public transport, Adelaide’s CBD and convenient high-quality local amenities.
Highlights of the $30 million-plus project include:
– 36 affordable rentals
– 34 affordable sales
– a 5-Star Green Star Building certification
– communal rooftop alfresco and garden area
– and bicycle storage and car parking.
The Global Award winner will be announced next November in London. (Globals)
