HANAC Corona Senior Housing

Structural design of new 60,000 SF, 8-story Passive House building for very low-income and formerly homeless seniors in Corona, Queens.

HANAC Corona Gardens is a newly constructed 60,000 SF, 8-story Passive House building in the Corona section of Queens features 68-units for very low-income and formerly homeless seniors and a community center on the ground floor. The structural framing consists of poured-in-place concrete flat plate construction and the lateral system is concrete shear walls.


This building had to be designed on a mat foundation due to poor soil conditions and a high water table. This project was pursuing Passive House certification which required close collaboration of the structural detailing to prevent thermal bridging. It has since been awarded a Passive House Certification, being one of the largest Passive House Projects in the US.
