135 Lafayette

Salem, MA

Built on the former St. Joseph’s parish campus in Salem and located in the City’s central business district, the design of this new mixed use, affordable housing complex was inspired by the historic context of the surrounding site. With an enticing blend of classic brick and contemporary architectural elements, 135 Lafayette’s program achieves the community’s objectives by providing 51 affordable apartments in a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedrooms; coupled with 4,000 square feet of commercial space, a resident courtyard, surface parking, and a centrally located neighborhood community room.
