ORLANDO, FL --- A team of
architects at Rhodes+Brito designed three of the six homes for veterans and
their families at Heroes’ Commons at Jefferson Park, a collaborative housing
development project by the Orlando Regional Realtor Foundation’s Art in
Architecture Program and the City of Orlando.
Maximiano Brito,
AIA, co-founder and partner at Rhodes+Brito Architects said he and other firm
members on the project Carl Shea, AIA and Loi
Van Loon-Flink donated their
services, valued at more than $146,640 for the three homes that range from
1,384 to 1,534 square feet of living area.
Heroes’ Commons at
Jefferson Park, located in Parramore community west of downtown Orlando, is a
project that was designed to maximize connectivity between the homes in the
neighborhood and provide a supportive and inclusive environment.
The new homeowners, with a
legacy of service, will continue to serve by working with their fellow veteran
neighbors and community leaders as advocates for the Parramore
neighborhood.
Thanks to the City of
Orlando and the Art in Architecture Program’s collaborative efforts, funding
partners and professionals who donated services, deserving veterans are moving
into brand new mortgage-free homes providing a step toward financial
independence and security.
“Helping both the
Parramore community and veterans who served and sacrificed so much for our
nation is really close to all our hearts and we were delighted to give back in
such a meaningful way,” said Brito.
