The housing crisis outlined in Ezra Klein’s article, “America’s Housing Crisis, in One Chart,” is no longer an abstract issue; it has become deeply personal for millions of Americans.
A recent Urban Land Institute article tackled some of the biggest myths about affordable housing, showing that the challenge isn’t just about price, it’s about how homes are built, financed, and delivered.
Vessel proposes to construct 120 attainably priced homes in West Hartford, Connecticut. This is a meaningful milestone that moves us closer to bringing thoughtfully designed homes to a community that deserves high-quality housing options.
In the post-World War II period, the great American middle class worked hard to support affordable mortgage payments on a comfortable home and ultimately realized their dream of burning that mortgage with it fully repaid. Home was an appreciating asset and store of wealth, while also the place for family gatherings, homework with the kids and some time in front of the TV at the end of a long day. Home made the American dream a reality.
The global climate crisis demands action on many fronts, including challenging the status quo when it comes to constructing new buildings. That’s why Vessel has reimagined all aspects of the way in which buildings are designed, built and operated in order to enhance the built environment without jeopardizing the natural one.
