solidarity house
homes for the people who live here
affordable housing isn’t charity. it’s the return of what was stolen.
solidarity house is 54 homes on two combined lots in north beacon hill, with 10,500 sq ft of community-facing cultural space on the ground floor. this is housing that builds community, not just shelter.
for decades, north beacon hill has been targeted by investors seeking to extract value. redlining kept people out. gentrification pushes people out. this project puts home and belonging back where it belongs — with the community.
