    The project will provide one 1-bedroom, nine 2-bedrooms and two 3-bedroom units to households at a range of income levels under 60% of the Area Median. Thanks to funding from Community Based Housing, two of these units will be completely handicap accessible. The CDP has already been awarded “Green Homes” funding through the Mass Technology Collaborative and the Cape Light Compact, allowing us to incorporate solar panels and increase our use of sustainable construction methods and materials.

Harwich Portuguese Men’s Club Project – 59 Queen Anne Road, Harwich, MA

  • Approximately 40 Affordable Rental Units
  • New Construction In 2005, after observing the need for year-round affordable rental housing in Harwich, the Harwich Portuguese Men’s Club asked the Community Development Partnership to develop such housing on five acres of a nine-acre site owned by the Club.

The CDP and the Men’s Club have worked diligently to craft a project that will respond directly to Harwich’s housing and environmental needs, while respecting the town’s unique character.

Through a partnership with the Boston Architectural College’s Community Design Studio, we facilitated participatory community design workshops over an 8-month period, enabling us to incorporate the ideas of local residents into our initial designs.

We anticipate the construction of approximately 40 affordable rental units. The units will be clustered into three neighborhoods, allowing for the preservation of some undisturbed green space and the creation of outdoor recreational areas within the 5 acres being developed by our organization. Preliminary housing and site designs focus on visual interest, privacy, sustainable building materials and features, appropriate scale, and responsiveness to the natural landscape.
