A catalyst for an emerging neighborhood

Ash + River Workforce Housing was a collaboration with the Capital City Development Corporation (CCDC) and serves a workforce population earning approximately 120% of AMI. A catalyst for the emerging neighborhood, the project fronts on the Pioneer Pathway, nestled in between a City Park and the Historic Hayman House, offering affordable housing for those who make less than 120% of AMI specifically targeting families. In response to its context, townhomes front the street and park frontages, with parking tucked between the two bays of buildings and under a small structure. Views from the public realm are of a locally inspired landscape, warm overhead soffits and quality building materials. An incubator retail space holds the corner, fronting the Pioneer Pathway and drawing pedestrians and cyclists through the project and down toward the Boise River.
