WinnCompanies has completed The Elmwood, a 93-unit, mixed-income housing development serving households in the fast-growing region around Worcester, MA. The $35.2-million new construction project delivered a combination of low-income, affordable, workforce and market-rate apartments in two energy-efficient, three-story buildings on a vacant nine-acre parcel in Shrewsbury, near key roadways and less than two miles from commuter rail service.
“The Elmwood reached full occupancy very quickly, providing clear evidence of the strong demand for apartment options across the income spectrum in this region,” said WinnDevelopment president Adam Stein. “We’re pleased to deliver a community that not only supports the economic strength of greater Worcester but also aligns with public policy goals for the production of quality, energy-efficient mixed-income housing.”
Designed and built to achieve low energy use and reduced carbon intensity, The Elmwood is certified as a Passive House community featuring high-efficiency electric HVAC systems and a 150-KW rooftop solar array.
