Elara at the Market, our first building, is tucked between some of the best amenities and resources our city has to offer! Because social housing should be connected to transit, food, healthcare and community hubs.

Building social housing = building belonging. Social housing means folks can age in place, kiddos have the option to stay in their schools, and people can stretch their budgets further so necessities like housing and food aren’t in competition.

Also, actual family-size housing! Market conditions have made lots of 1BRs and studios, but we will need things like Social Housing to build more family-size units so that people can actually raise their kids within the city.

Some key quotes from this great article about us in @shelterforce.bsky.social “We’re the only developer in this city that is going to be overtly focusing on two-, three- and even maybe some four-bedroom units. That is a deep need for our families in the city.” shelterforce.org/2026/08/31/c...

“The problem today is not simply a failure of policy. It is a failure of political imagination. During World War II, the country understood that housing was not just another commodity. It was essential infrastructure for a functioning society.”
