HANAC Corona Senior Residence

Location
Queens, New York

The Hanac Corona Senior Residence is a 68-unit Passive House building to house very low-income and formerly homeless seniors. For this 8-story building, we used a collage-like approach in our design and choice of materials in order to visually integrate it into the surrounding low-rise neighborhood. The design approach for this project was defined by the goal of bringing a new paradigm of energy conservation to publicly funded, affordable housing through the robust protocols of Passive House. As the first new senior affordable building in Queens in 30 years, we wanted to reimagine senior living and identified the opportunity to foster a more vibrant and intergenerational community through the creation of shared community spaces between the senior residence and the pre-school on the ground floor.
