UDC Menands Housing
Menands, New York
1972
Three hundred units of low and middle income housing on a heavily wooded site, north of Albany, New York. It was intended to capitalize on lessons learned from the industrialized housing construction used in the Ithaca Scattered Site Housing Project. Crane roads and prefabricated unit staging areas would later be converted into village greens and linear garden swaths that form a series of villages created in clearings in the woods
