The Juniper brings 65 affordable homes to Maplewood’s Gladstone neighborhood through a design that reflects the culture, values, and everyday lives of the community it serves. Created primarily for larger and multigenerational households, the development draws inspiration from the traditions of the area’s Hmong residents, incorporating features such as generous pantry storage, expanded laundry areas, and welcoming entry mudrooms that support daily family life.

Fourteen homes are dedicated to supportive housing, complemented by on-site services that help residents build long-term stability and connection. Shared amenities and durable, thoughtfully detailed interiors create spaces that are comfortable, practical, and designed for lasting use.

Located adjacent to Gladstone Prairie Savanna and near Lake Phalen, The Juniper connects residents to nature while strengthening neighborhood ties. The result is a vibrant, Living-Centered community that expands housing choice, celebrates cultural identity, and creates opportunities for families to thrive for generations.
