Torti Gallas is one of the nation’s leading planners and architects of affordable housing. To date, we have designed over 40,000 affordable and workforce housing units that are built and occupied. We have become a leader in this field by listening to residents, community stakeholders, and clients to understand the needs of residents, and by balancing those needs with budgetary realities. Our designs strive to create housing for low-income residents that is as attractive as the inter-mixed market-rate housing, making the overall community a highly valued place to live.

Every community needs a core, a place where neighbors can come together in the “community living room.” Such facilities offer countless benefits to residents and serve as an affordable place for people to exercise, enjoy nature, and spend time with their family and friends.
Community facilities designed by Torti Gallas often incorporate sustainable design and materials in order to obtain LEED Certifications. Ranging from a cozy 3,000 square feet to a generous 12,000 square feet, these buildings provide a host of amenities for neighborhood residents, including a neighborhood living room (great room), business centers, fitness centers, game rooms, and children’s rooms.
In addition, most of the community facilities have an outdoor swimming pool, outdoor living areas, generously landscaped open areas, and ample outdoor recreational facilities, including basketball and volleyball courts. The buildings’ common areas provide families, neighbors, and community groups a place to meet and interact, creating a modern version of the Town Hall.
