There’s a meeting about co-housing coming up on Friday, May 9. Per an email we got:

Come hear national expert and co-author of “The Cohousing Handbook: Building a Place for Community“, Chris ScottHanson, give a free talk and slideshow about Cohousing communities on Friday May 9th at 6:30 pm at the Brooklyn Friends Meeting House, 110 Schermerhorn Street near Borough Hall. Sponsored by the Brooklyn Cohousing Group, www.brooklyncohousing.org, which is building an urban Cohousing community in the Prospect Park area of Brooklyn. If you are interested in a more community-oriented way of living while still having privacy and owning your own home, then you may be interested in Cohousing. The idea of Cohousing is not new. It has been around since the 60’s and is more popular in Europe, but there are many Cohousing groups in the US.

True affordable, cooperative housing.
