“Street
in the Woods”, Hanover, NH
In partnership with a metro-Boston developer,
Turnstone developed an innovative age-targeted housing concept for
a 500 acre site in Hanover, NH. The plan envisions tightly
clustered housing, organized as a traditional street, occupying less
that 10% of the site. Open meadows and the existing barn will be
leased to a local farmer, and the balance of the site will be accessible
by hiking and cross country trails, and protected by a conservation
easement. With an emphasis on full service living, this community-oriented
project will provide on-site management and include a function space,
business center, and art studio. Landscaping will use native species
and will seamlessly integrate into the natural setting. The architecture
will take its cues from the local vernacular and will incorporate
a broad array of green design elements.
