For the 2022-23 school year, Bridges students are working on new home builds at 421 4th St. and 1200 Doty St. in Green Bay in partnership with NeighborWorks Green Bay. Both sites were previously vacant lots.
The new homes are three bedroom, two bath single family homes. The students are also building 24'x24' detached garages. Students will work on the floor, walls, framing, siding, roofing and finished carpentry of the homes. Because these homes have a smaller footprint, students will have the opportunity to do more roof framing, most of the drywall, and most of the finished carpentry. View photos of the new home build on 4th Street. View photos of Doty Street.
Students will build two homes side by side on Day Street in 2023-2024.
