History

This house was bought by SHC in 1980 through the HUD loan, and was part of New Community Co-op for several years. Eventually, SHC began renting out the house, often to former co-op members. In 1995, the house re-opened as a cozy five-member co-op.
Because it is so small, all of the members generally take officer positions as well as performing house labor. This builds strong community in the SHC's smallest house!
