Mora, MN

IN BRIEF

23 Senior Affordable (HUD 202) Units

THE CHALLENGE

Providing for the growing need for affordable housing within this small community, the Mora HRA sought to partner with WAI Continuum to tap into federal HUD funding to develop this new project.

THE SOLUTION

The 23 unit project features charming aesthetics that offer marketable character within the confines of the budget limitations.  To break up massing of the large building facade, multiple complimentary materials and accents were used to create a more intimate curb-side appeal.

Residents find comfortable housing units with added storage and common area spaces that include a central dining area with lounge space and a warp around porch for community socialization.
