11 E Lenox featured on Passive House Accelerator!
As the project nears completion in Q4 2022, we spoke with PHA about some of the design challenges and goals in developing this mass timber Passive House multifamily. Link below.
Mass Timber Topped Out
We conclude this year with the topping off of our 7 story mass timber project, 11 E Lenox. The installment of the last CLT slab went smoothly, becoming Boston’s first ground up mass timber project. We are overwhelmingly thankful for our incredible team and collaborators on this project. A huge shout out to our team who made this possible: Boston Real Estate Collaborative, D2 Development, Urbancore Development, Haycon, Nordic Structures, Code Red, H+O Structural Engineering, BLW Engineers, and Passive to Positive.
11 E Lenox Under Construction
Boston’s first ground up new mass timber project is now under construction! When complete in Fall 2022, 11 E Lenox will be the first Passive House (PHIUS+ 2018) mass timber project in the Boston metro area. With foundations complete and the prefab modular steel form vertical cores now fully installed, the first mass timber components are due to arrive in less than two weeks. Stay tuned for more progress shots as the mass timber is erected!
MFDS is now Passive House CPHC® certified
