Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Common House Size

[David Heimann (heimann]

Hi Per,

	We at Jamaica Plain Cohousing are a 30-household community on one acre 
of urban land.  Our common facilities, in addition to an elevator, include a 
great room, kitchen, children's playroom, living room, mail room, courtyard and 
patio on the main level, a guest suite, laundry room, rumpus room, office area, 
mechanical room, storage room, and boiler room on the basement level on the 
common-house side, and a large undeveloped basement on the other side, 
currently used for carpentry and other work, bike storage, outdoor-furniture 
storage, and tool storage.

	Let me know if you'd like to know the various sizes and dimensions. 
All the best in your formation!

Regards,
David Heimann
JP Cohousing

We are building a common house soon at Champlain Valley Cohousing in
Vermont.  We will have 26 households when we're fully established.  I
was wondering what size other people's common houses are.  How big is
yours and how many households do you have?
