Module Design announced its latest project (a partnership with the URA & Bloomfield 
Garfield Corporation), a 4-unit mixed income development in Pittsburgh’s East End. One home, located at 5454 Black Street, is 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths and 1,280 square feet + 640 square feet of expandable space.
Fabricated off-site with the dependability of 21st century manufacturing. The home is a Zero Energy Ready Home, which “represents a whole new level of home performance, with rigorous requirements that ensure outstanding levels of energy savings, comfort, health, and durability.”
Basically, these homes must all have six key components:
- A high-performance thermal enclosure
- Whole house water protection
- A high-performance comfort system
- High-efficiency components
- Whole house health protection
- Enhanced quality assurance

“Demand for 55+ housing remains solid, as demonstrated in the surge for 55+ rental demand,” said Dietz. “Builder sentiment for the for-sale 55+ housing market also remains in positive territory, supported by low inventory of existing homes. However, it is being constrained by development costs and their impact on affordability.”
“Slate Homes can take advantage of small projects in remote locations that other builders wouldn’t be able to. For instance, taking on a 12 home pocket community in a small resort town in North Carolina will help Geehan ramp up scale. Some builders take the work to the market, but Slate takes the home to the market.”
