Consisting of 50% one-bedroom units and 50% two-bedroom units, this 24-unit multifamily affordable housing development will bring much needed affordable housing inventory to Nashua, NH. Jackson Square is a proud recipient of the Invest NH grant for affordable housing. The initial inspiration for the design of Jackson Square was people and community. The intent was to build affordable housing that someone would be excited to live in, feel comfortable when walking through the front door, and have the dignity of a beautiful home without the stigma of the traditional affordable housing aesthetic. The challenge for the design of Jackson Square was to create a building that would become an example of good affordable housing design, breaking the mold of what is possible with limited resources.

Our design focused on smart massing, creative and efficient spatial unit layouts, and finding selective moments for artful design, resulting in a low income building within a low income neighborhood, that feels anything but.
