CNU Public Square: Multiunit courtyard housing fits the historic context
A small site project offers density and new housing options for Hyannis, Massachusetts, with design that improves an old streetscape
Sea Captains’ Row is a missing middle rental development on 1.6 acres in the historic district of Hyannis, Massachusetts. Pleasant Street was “once home to early sea captains and a vital link between the train station and Hyannis Harbor,” explains Union Studio, which won a missing middle Design Excellence Award from the Urban Guild.
Sea Captains Row provides 44 living spaces in a mix of one- and two-bedroom apartments, including two fully accessible ADA units. Modular construction was employed, with floor plans optimized for easy transportation of the units across the bridges connecting Cape Cod to the mainland.
