Cottage Grove provides affordable rental housing in the form of studio suites and one bedroom accessible suites for homeless and at risk seniors. It is built on land that was sold by the estate of Herman Rebneris, a well known local developer of affordable and special needs housing, and is named for his development company – Cottage Grove Developments.
Designed to achieve a level of sustainability consistant with the requirements of LEED for Homes Midrise Gold, the project achieves a reduction in energy useage that is 16 per cent better than the ASHRAE 90.1 Energy Standard.
