Province Post
DBVW worked with The Community Builders, a Massachusetts-based non-profit housing developer, in conjunction with the Town of Provincetown, to create a new mixed use neighborhood. Located on the site of the old VFW building, it is within a short walking distance of the commercial center of the town. The project includes the design of four new Energy Star certified buildings that contain 61 affordable studio, one, two and three-bedroom rental apartments as well as four market rate rental apartments. The new Cape Cod style cluster development complements the dense fabric of Provincetown while establishing moments for public and semi-public gathering spaces throughout.
