Essex Townhouses provides low-income housing to families on New Haven's East Shore.  As part of the Housing Authority of New Haven's Moving to Work program, improvements are being planned for site management and conditions at this development.

Recently, Essex Townhouse residents partnered with HANH, Home Depot and the KaBOOM non-profit organization to design and construct a playground for the development's children.  KaBOOM asked the kids to describe their ideal playground, and then presented them with three potential designs (above) based on their requests.
