A.P. Construction Company, the general contracting and construction management division of The Ashforth Company, is currently completing the construction of a 37,000-square-foot, affordable housing project. The multi-family, residential property is located at 25 Third Street in downtown Stamford, CT.

This project includes the conversion of an existing 25,000-square-foot class B office building to a 50-unit apartment building.

A 12,000-square-foot addition is being added to the rear so that the project will provide 13 studio, 25 one-bedroom and 13 two bedroom affordable apartments.

Serious Glass windows are being installed which let natural light in while blocking harmful ultraviolet radiation. These windows are designed to reduce energy consumption and operating costs. They also may potentially help cut construction costs by allowing the heating and cooling systems to be down-sized.

The project is anticipated to be completed this summer.

“We are glad to be working on an affordable housing project right in our own community and to add another large residential project to our portfolio,” said Nicholas S. Everett, Senior Vice President of A.P. Construction Company.

The architect is A. Hennessy Architects, P.C. LLC. Tom Favazzo is the project manager and Larry Quintiliano is the superintendent, both of A.P. Construction Company.
