Affordable housing projects require strong collaboration from start to finish, and we’re proud to have contributed construction administration services for Golden Hill in Kingston, NY. Thank you to the entire project team for helping create much-needed housing for the community.
Golden Hill is a story of site transformation, energy efficiency, and human-centered community design.
Built on a newly reimagined 20-acre site that was formerly the Ulster County Jail, Golden Hill is a highly-efficient, all-electric development pursuing both the U.S. Department of Energy’s Zero Energy Ready Home certification and Enterprise Green Communities “Plus” level of certification. Each building will have a rooftop solar array that will collectively generate roughly 700 kWp of renewable energy, enough to power about 85 homes per year.
Designed with green building principles in mind, Golden Hill maximizes solar heat gain in the winter and provides shading in the summer. It incorporates high-performance windows and energy recovery systems to support efficient heating and cooling.
“Sustainability is not a separate initiative— it’s how we define responsible stewardship. By aligning purpose and performance, we turn data into action, strengthen communities, and build a lasting legacy of resilience and accountability.” - Jason Newman, VP of Asset Management
