Stanley Street
Pioneer Valley Habitat built four single-family homes between 2006 and 2011 on Stanley Street. The land was donated by Amherst College and Amherst students were active on the building crews, supplemented by other PVHH construction volunteers. The homes were designed by Kuhn Riddle Architects for great energy efficiency, which helps keep them sustainable for low-income homeowners. You can read about the photovoltaic panels installed on these homes in our November 2010 newsletter.
