Jake Fry talks with co-hosts Jennifer-Lee and Mike about the concept of attainable housing for the missing middle and building thriving modern-day communities.
㽶ƵֱOur experience reflects that of the 370+ small homes we㽶Ƶֱve built, easily over 85% have been for multi-generational living, and I think that㽶Ƶֱs the big drive,㽶Ƶֱ says Fry.
Land valuations, environmental impacts of today㽶Ƶֱs building materials and systems, and our end goals all add up to a riveting conversation with Fry recommending we keep an open mind to solutions and focus on sophisticated conversations, versus complicated ones.
㽶ƵֱI would argue there㽶Ƶֱs going to be lots of opportunities to reuse a building, renovate a building, and the greenest building is the building that㽶Ƶֱs standing right now. Period. And when we look to recycle, reuse, reduce, reusing those buildings where we can and trying to keep them as intact as possible, there㽶Ƶֱll be opportunities for a house to have three suites in it and a coach house in the back, those are the things we have to be very vigorous about in our analysis of what is good.㽶Ƶֱ Jake Fry, Smallworks.
