Building

We’ve partnered with the brilliant teams at Christine Lintott Architects, Biophilia Collective, and Happy Cities to create this innovative and thought provoking design. Convent Place represents a revival of classic people-centered design, seamlessly integrated with modern building science. Our homes feature smart-functional floor plans and energy-efficient walls, along with heat pumps for heating and cooling and all-electric appliances. These features prioritize both comfort and sustainability.

In contrast to traditional housing that’s built around vehicle parking, Convent Place offers a vibrant courtyard, timeless architecture, and homes designed to accommodate people of all ages. It's a place where families can thrive, fostering a sense of community and well-being.

With its network of well-maintained sidewalks, bike lanes, and public transportation options, residents enjoy seamless access to amenities, parks, and local shops.
