- Maverick Landing, East Boston, Massachusetts
- Maverick Landing is a new mixed income housing community located on the East Boston waterfront. In 2001, the Boston Housing Authority was awarded a $34 million HOPE VI award for the complete renovation of Maverick Gardens, a deteriorated public housing development. Working with development partner, the East Boston Community Development Corporation, Trinity devised a four phase redevelopment plan calling for demolition of all 413 units to be replaced with 396 units in newly constructed buildings including, 20 townhouse buildings and six six-story mid-rise buildings and a community center. The new development includes energy efficient lighting, appliances, and structural elements including photovoltaic panels. Maverick Landing is a mixed income community with 77% of the units affordable to households earning up to 60% of area median income and the remaining 23% as market rate rentals. Maverick has received national recognition for its focus on energy efficiency and serves as a model for "green" affordable housing development in New England and across the nation. The reconfiguration of the historic street pattern provides a new corridor to Boston Harbor, and reconnects Maverick to the surrounding East Boston community.
