Hard copies of our new report just arrived ahead of Thursday’s release event with @Harvard_JCHS and @Utile_Design. Not too late to register and snag one for yourself! tbf.org/events/2024/oc…
Tomorrow (Oct 10) join us @ 9am ET for the release of a new report examining how we might build more affordable, space-efficient housing by exploring the potential for allowing single-staircase designs in building code. jchs.harvard.edu/calendar/legal…
Livestream @ 9am ET: A new report out today examines whether relaxing the building code requirement for more than one staircase in small buildings could unlock both more housing and more appealing types of homes, especially in urban areas. jchs.harvard.edu/blog/how-could…
