About
The proposed project is a 4-story building in Newton, MA. It consists of an addition of 43 dwelling units comprised of one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom apartments. There is also an existing portion of the building, which is not part of the passive house project, but is considered for how it is integrated here with the new building to be constructed. The passages to the existing building from the passive house building are to be taken into consideration.
