Cohousing-L Mailing List: Very quick question

[Tom Hammer (thammer302]

Hi All,

We have a very quick question with an answer needed urgently (by  
Sunday a.m.):

we have a developer who is suggesting a 2500 sq ft common house for 34  
families.

This seems small to me, and we could really use your quick estimate of  
the sq ft of your common house and how many households it serves.  We  
could then come up with  sq ft/household and see if our developer's  
figures make sense.   .

Sorry about the urgency: we have a landowner who wants an offer by  
Monday, and a pro forma from the developer sent to us today that has  
us asking lots of questions.

many thanks,

Tom Hammer
