124 Units of Passive, Afforable Housing, Built for Coastal Flood Resilience, June 5, Salem, Massachusetts
Event Description

On June 5, NESEA will bring attendees behind-the-scenes for a Pro Tour of a new, 124-unit affordable passive housing development in Salem, MA. This project is being built for Passive House certification and will include flood-resistant features to help to protect occupants from coastal climate events. In addition to the housing, the project includes amenity spaces and is adjacent to a public park. The 

The event will begin with an opening workshop where the project team will discuss the big picture aspects of this all-electric project, including low-embodied carbon materials, envelope, systems, and the solar panels that reduce operational energy significantly. Attendees will then break into small groups to tour the building while hearing more from the interdisciplinary team of experts who made it possible. After the tour, we’ll regroup for a reception and Q&A, giving attendees the opportunity to chat with the day’s speakers and each other.
