Cook Avenue

Developer: Ranken Community Development Corporation

Every year, Ranken Technical School sponsors the construction of a row of new homes near the campus. This program is both an opportunity to give students hands-on construction experience and a way to provide the community with moderately priced homes. This row of four homes uses an “Arts and Crafts” style vernacular exterior. The interior features many amenities, such as a two-story entry, attached two-car garage, crown molding and sophisticated lighting not found in many similar “for profit” developments
