Fresh Hope Communities

Congratulations to everyone involved in the ideation, planning and delivery of Nightingale Marrickville by Fresh Hope Communities which has received a 2024 Urban Land Institute Global Award for Excellence. Fresh Hope Communities partnered with Nightingale Housing on the model and approach, and the built form was designed by SJB, project managed by Icon Project Management and delivered by CD Construction Group. The land was leased from Fresh Hope Communities member and owner churches of Christ in NSW & ACT. Nightingale Marrickville delivers 54 affordable studio apartments, with NO GOVERNMENT FUNDING and was only able to be undertaken thanks to the vision and support of the "many" whose strong desire is to move the dial by piloting something different in the affordable housing space. https://lnkd.in/ghbiN5j7 To our supporters and those envisioning the project and seeing it to fruition...

Last week, we gathered to celebrate all things Nightingale Marrickville. Now that residents have settled in and it has transformed from a 'project' into a 'home', it was the perfect moment to raise a toast. The evening featured a beautiful Welcome to Country and Smoking Ceremony by Brendan Kerin from the Metropolitan Local Aboriginal Land Council, accompanied by tunes from a resident DJ, and a delightful array of homemade snacks. A heartfelt thank you to the residents for hosting and to Fresh Hope Communities for making this project, now home, a reality. 🙌🏻 @freshhopecommunities 📷️ @klongersklongers⁠ #nightingalehousing #nightingale #housing #nightingalemarrickville #community #celebrate

"Nightingale. Welcome to Sydney!" Today marked a significant milestone as NSW Minister for Housing, Rose Jackson, joined us to officially open Nightingale Marrickville, marking the completion of Nightingale's inaugural project for NSW as well as Fresh Hope Communities’ first affordable housing project. Joined by NSW Minister for Planning, Paul Scully, Deputy Mayor of the Inner West Council, Chloe Smith, and leaders from Fresh Hope Communities and Nightingale Housing, Minister Jackson planted a ceremonial Banksia on the shared garden terrace, signaling to Government's desire to see more projects like Nightingale Marrickville realised more often. The group had the pleasure of meeting Stevie, one of the residents, chatting about what their new home means to them and taking a look around. Designed by the team at SJB, Nightingale Marrickville comprises 54 small-footprint homes and generous shared spaces. With rent capped at 80% of the market rate, residents can enjoy secure housing while providing some relief to financial stress. We extend our sincere gratitude to Fresh Hope Communities, churches of Christ in NSW & ACT, whose vision and dedication have brought this project to fruition. It was a bold project to take on, and Nightingale is so happy to be part of it. We hope Nightingale Marrickville sets a new benchmark for affordable housing projects, showcasing what can be achieved through collaboration and community-driven initiatives. 🙌 #rosejackson Paul Scully Chloe Smith Fresh Hope Communities Daniel Dwyer Dan McKenna SJB 📷️ Kate Longley ⁠ #nightingalehousing #nightingale #housing #nightingalemarrickville #marrickville #sydney #affordablehousing #buildtorent #smallfootprintliving #2204⁠
