Net Zero Triplexes in Time Check
Matthew 25 is working to revitalize the Time Check neighborhood with healthy, future-focused housing that serves both people and the planet. Homes will be:
- Built on vacant lots leftover from the flood of 2008
- Designed and built using sustainable building practices
- Furnished with energy efficient heating and cooling systems and appliances
- Designed with front porches and yards that encourage community building among neighbors
We will be partnering with local developers and using a variety of funding streams to fill the gap between affordability, market pricing, and building costs.
At Matthew 25, we know that a diverse community that includes a multitude of housing options for people at a variety of income levels is the healthiest place to live. Contact us if you’re interested in learning more or purchasing one of the homes we’re building.
