As a nonprofit developer of affordable housing, BBH NE is a trusted partner that brings expertise and a commitment to affordability to Greater Boston communities with high housing costs. Our housing, both rental and home ownership, is for young families and older adults, regardless of religion or background.
33Comm is a nationally award winning, 57-unit mixed-income home ownership community created through a partnership between B’nai B’rith Housing and the City of Newton.
Collectively, the Covenant House Communities are nationally recognized as innovative models of quality affordable housing that are both affordable and supportive of the social and service needs of its residents.
B’nai B’rith Housing’s upcoming development is a 64 unit rental community for seniors and older adults, ages 55 and older. It provides a housing alternative that does not currently exist in Sudbury–an affordable rental option for Sudbury resdients as well as seniors who may relocate to be closer to children and grandchildren. The name “The Coolidge” pays homage to the family who began the substantial greenhouse operation on the site in the 1800s.
This winter, the City of Newton will be looking for a partner to redevelop a parking lot in Newtonville into mixed use housing and commercial space. The site on Austin Street is next to Starbucks and across from Star Market. B’nai B’rith Housing intends to submit a proposal to develop this lot.

Why Affordable Housing?
Workforce, senior and family housing
Many cities and towns in the Greater Boston area are faced with a growing senior population but few options for seniors to downsize and remain in the town where they have built their lives. For young families, the cost of housing is so high that they are priced out of many communities.
Smart-growth and transit-oriented housing
Building affordable housing is also a focus for economic growth in the region. Without it, Massachusetts companies will struggle to retain their workforce as residents leave for less expensive areas of the country.
