NJBIZ shares Affordable Housing Strategies from AIA New Jersey Members and Firms in the First Article of a Three-Part Series Developed by Joshua Zinder, AIA

An article authored by AIA NJ Past President Joshua Zinder, AIA, with contributions from Thriven Design, Studio Hillier, JZA+D and Jarmel-Kizel Architects has been distributed by NJBIZ in print and online. This is the first article in the series on this critical topic in the NJ Affordable Housing conversation. 

“As architects, resistance to this development of affordable housing is familiar and unsurprising. We have a vital role to play in growing New Jersey’s available stock, by advocating for design innovation that addresses the “Missing Middle” and upending the way most residents think about affordable housing. “Architects have a responsibility to positively shape the communities where we live, work, and play,” says AIA New Jersey 2025 President-elect Jessica O’Donnell, AIA. “Creative Missing-Middle Housing solutions provide sustainable, high-quality, and safe neighborhoods.”
