cohousingLearn about a possible cohousing project in the Northfield area from 7 to 9 pm, Wednesday, April 30 in the meeting room of the Northfield Public Library (210 Washington Street) at an informational meeting hosted by Sustainable Community Solutions.

Cohousing is a type of collaborative housing that provides the opportunity for people to live together as a close-knit neighborhood while maintaining all the benefits of private home ownership. It is characterized by private residences with all the features of conventional homes (kitchen, living-dining room, bedrooms), but with access to extensive common facilities, including a community house.

This type of housing began in Denmark in the late 1960s, and spread to North America in the late 1980s. There are now more than a hundred cohousing communities completed or in development across the United States and Canada.
