Collaborative volunteers developed several design alternatives for new
infill housing on the 4200 block of Stiles Street. They also worked with
Habitat and East Parkside community leaders to build consensus on the best
option.
Habitat broke ground on the project in summer 2007. Stiles Street Housing
will be PhiladelphiaÕs first green, affordable housing. The project was part
of a United States Green Building Council demonstration program for the LEED
for Homes rating system.
