Architectural Record 2024:05

The May issue of RECORD surveys multifamily projects that confront various barriers to provide housing for all, including the adaptive reuse of municipal infrastructure in Winnipeg, a mixed-use infill development in Buffalo, a mass-timber tower in Seattle, supportive housing in Long Beach, and an open-source model offering a solution to Silicon Valley’s homelessness crisis. We also profile a trio of housing projects that meld affordability with lofty energy performance goals and hear the argument for single-stair egress. Elsewhere, we visit a burgeoning arts district in Detroit and farther-flung projects of note in Taiwan, Bahrain, and Goa, India, where May’s House of the Month is located.
