#Housing - Thank you to the U.S. Housing & Community Development Conference & Expo for a very informative, engaging, and most importantly honest conversation on affordable, attainable, and workforce housing. Very grateful this was held in Dallas this week! Housing is such a complex issue and it was wonderful to learn about new tools, creative solutions, and initiatives that we can consider to ensure residents have a home. This is one of the best conferences I have attended! #AffordableHousing #AttainableHousing #WorkforceHousing #CompleteCommunity #CompleteNeighborhood #NCTEDD #EconomicDevelopment .

Honored to be apart of the opening panel with such a talented group of professionals …The State of the U.S. Housing Market and Future Outlook at the U.S. Housing & Community Development Conference & Expo was extremely powerful. Great job to all my co-panelists. Also, it was great talking with Candace Valenzuela, HUD Region 6 Administrator, and Earl Redrick HUD Fort Worth Field Office Director. #affordablehousingmatters #HCDC2024

Awesome experience at the U.S. Housing & Community Development Conference & Expo in Dallas. Informative sessions and great people.

It was an honor to serve as moderator for the opening session at the U.S. Housing & Community Development Conference & Expo today. Lauro Ferroni kicked-off the session with a data-driven analysis of the current housing market. His overview was followed by an insightful panel discussion with some of the industry leaders from the City of Dallas, Invest Atlanta, and the Houston Housing Authority. Proud to have JLL as a sponsor of this important conference. #affordablehousing #HCDC2024 #JLL

Bureau Executive Director Morteza Farajian opened the afternoon program at the Advancing Project Delivery Excellence U.S. Housing & Community Development Conference & Expo in Dallas.

The conference is spotlighting inventive strategies in development and financing to broaden access to affordable, attainable, workforce, and off-campus residences.

Construction labor shortages, shrinking trade pools, supply chain disruptions, and the rise of a technology-driven economy highlight the need for a shift in building practices.   Cuningham’s Tracy Lee Lauer AIA, PMP and Ellen Rath are attending the U.S. Housing & Community Development Conference & Expo this week, presenting “Revolutionizing Construction: Embracing Alternative Construction Approaches to Deliver High Quality Housing Solutions,” an exploration of how off-site construction methods such as volumetric modular construction can enable housing authorities, developers, and owners to deliver high-quality housing more effectively than traditional methods.   Download Cuningham's Annual Design Report for a case study on the Eddi, a new residential community embracing off-site construction: bit.ly/3URGDwb   #ModularConstruction #HousingSolutions
