Development that densifies and democratizes.

We add homes where homes already exist—and open the door for more people to take part in ownership and long-term wealth-building.

1. Democratizing Ownership

Maine faces a severe housing shortage across all price points. We focus on delivering market-rate housing through infill development, because every new unit, regardless of price, helps ease the overall strain. By leveraging Portland’s ReCode zoning reforms, we unlock the hidden potential of already-built neighborhoods, adding housing where infrastructure already exists and density makes sense. Our approach reduces sprawl, accelerates timelines, and helps stabilize prices through steady, incremental supply.

2. Affordable by Design

Affordability isn’t just about what a home costs — it’s about how it’s built, where it’s located, and who it’s designed for. We focus on affordable-by-design principles: smaller, more efficient units, shared outdoor space, compact footprints, and sites near transit, groceries, and jobs. These strategies reduce construction and living costs while maintaining high-quality, energy-efficient housing. By avoiding reliance on public subsidies or mandates alone, we make attainable housing a scalable, replicable part of Portland’s urban fabric.

3. Building for the Future

We approach every project with a long-term view — environmentally, economically, and socially. Infill housing is one of the most climate-friendly ways to grow, requiring less land, less infrastructure, and fewer car trips. But we also measure sustainability by how long people can stay. That’s why we focus on ownership opportunities, community investment, and lasting affordability. Our model reduces displacement, creates pathways to stability, and ensures that the value created by growth is shared by the people who call Portland home.
