747 Hartford Avenue

White River Junction, VT

Twin Pines plans to build an 18-unit apartment building, on a parcel of the St. Paul’s Church property. Preliminary plans call for the building to have three-stories with a pitched roof and with all apartments having a single bedroom. The building will provide permanent housing for its residents, who will receive case management services from the Haven in addition to services provided by Twin Pines’ staff. It will help meet the need for permanent housing with supportive services from those who have experienced long-term homelessness.

PROJECT UPDATE — April 24, 2024:

At this point, we’re running on schedule to a little ahead of schedule. The gypcrete was put down at the end of last week on the second and third floors. Gypcrete is a product that smooths out the surface and gets put down in preparation for the flooring which will come afterwards. Drywall has begun to be put up on the first floor, and taping is primarily complete on the second and third floors. However, they do need to tape the bathroom ceilings on the second and third floors. If they can get the bathrooms taped and sanded, then the painters can get started as soon as Monday.  As for the upcoming sequence for interior work, we’ll see the painting, then the installation of the cabinets and then flooring.

On the exterior, work continues with the siding as they should be able to complete the front by the end of this upcoming week.

We try to give updates on upcoming deliveries, but some literally arrive with only a few hours’ notice. If a delivery does or is going to occur, Ingram Construction does set out cones in the parking lot. Therefore, if the cones are visible, you can assume that a delivery is imminent.

County Road Apartments

New London, NH

Twin Pines is excited to move forward on a proposed 60-unit workforce housing project in New London, NH. The project would be built on a seven-acre site, zoned for multi-family units, behind the Hannaford shopping center and near the New London Hospital. The site is on town water and walkable to local commerce, library, and the hospital.

This project comes as the result of a local citizens group reaching out to Twin Pines, to seek solutions to New London’s workforce housing needs. Twin Pines is in the process of securing funding for the project and beginning local permitting, which involves initial work with architects and engineers on site design. In September, Twin Pines presented a conceptual site plan to the New London Planning Board, which was received positively. Additionally, Twin Pines is committed to participating in community conversations in New London to describe the project, answer questions, and receive citizen input.

The 60 units would be one- and two-bedroom apartments, geared toward individuals making between 60% and 80% of Area Median Income. The proposed project would be comprised of four buildings, each with ten 1-BR apartments and five 2-BR apartments.

Architectural schematics will be available soon. For more information on the project, click here for Frequently Asked Questions.
