Passive to Positive consulted with Housing Up, a non-profit affordable housing developer in Washington, DC and Matt Fine, formerly of Zavos Architecture and Design to deliver the first retrofit apartment building to Passive House standards in the United States. Weinberg Commons was a derelict complex of 3 brick and block apartment buildings constructed in the mid-sixties that had served as low income housing. Typical of buildings of this era, the windows were single pane aluminum frame and the walls were completely uninsulated. It was clear from the existing conditions that the former residents had struggled mightily to remain comfortable, and that mold had been a significant indoor air quality issue.

The retrofit of the school building will include 45 affordable housing units and has been pre-certified By PHIUS under the PHIUS+ 2018 standard. The Rotunda will be retrofit as phase two of the project. It will also meet Passive House standards and will be designed as a flexible office and community gathering space, including sustainable living education programming, creative arts and worship services. Solar arrays and battery storage will support a resiliency hub for residents of the rental apartments and members of the community in the event of grid failure due to extreme weather, or other causes. The site surrounding the Rotunda and residences will be redeveloped as a regenerative Urban Farm to provide fresh produce as well as educational opportunities to its residents and surrounding neighbors. The farm is proposed to include two small passive solar greenhouses, hügelkultur beds, accessible raised beds, cold frames, outdoor gathering space, tool storage, and a food forest. Permaculture principals will be employed to create a functional and sustainable growing space to benefit residents, local ecosystems, and the climate. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5915c2db29687fc18f1f22ca/1611716558683-7L8E8BIV713XSTFQ82VP/20181108_BnaiIsrael_Interior_Garfield_Print-1.jpg North Negley Ave - Negley Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA A former Synagogue, built in 1923 and an attached, mid-century modern Hebrew school located in the Garfield neighborhood of Pittsburgh will be redeveloped as affordable housing.
