Driven by a co-housing approach and a community typology based on aggregation that provides opportunities for aging in place, this project creates a diversity of unit types to accommodate families and their extended relatives (grandparents, aunts, uncles), students, and singles and couples looking for a starter space who will later need to grow their space with their families. The project also provides a model for commercial insertions through a street-oriented "mortgage helper" (or Commercial Retail Unit, in more conventional terms). The space may be used as a community space for the building and neighbourhood, or leased out to small businesses such as a café, beauty salon, professional services office, or retail establishment. This approach aims to focus on the benefits of increased density and foster greater interaction between neighbours to stimulate exchange of ideas and create resilient communities that look out for each other.
