Adaptive Commons strategically invests in the transformation of civic spaces for social good. We align catalytic capital, best-in-class local developers, and undervalued real assets to deliver reimagined spaces for essential workers.

WHY ADAPTIVE COMMONS?

$

The demand for affordable housing for essential workers presents a huge opportunity.

Numerous municipalities are reacting with and actively seeking workforce housing solutions.

Adapting existing structures saves up to 40% of emissions and adapting these structures within the urban core reduces transportation and additional land use.

By investing in the development of workforce housing, we help create better outcomes
for essential workers, the people they serve, and the broader community.

The Adaptive Commons leadership team brings with it decades of real estate development and investment experience, coupled with a long and successful track record of convening strategic partners to advance holistic and impactful projects.

OPPORTUNITY

Essential workers across the U.S. cannot afford to live near where they work. At the same time there is an oversupply of vacant buildings that threaten the viability of city centers.

SOLUTION: INVEST & TRANSFORM

Via a bespoke real estate development and investment platform, Adaptive Commons connects municipalities to turnkey workforce housing solutions for essential workers.

WHY NOW?

We believe that adaptive reuse of existing municipal structures represents an efficient and sustainable solution to the nation’s housing and climate crises.
