Nestled on 2.3 acres of promising land, we are embarking on a transformative journey to build 22 homes, comprising 16 three and four-bedroom townhomes and 6 two-bedroom cottages.
Habitat for Humanity Selected for the Boulevard Road Site
On January 5, 2022, the City issued a Solicitation of Interest seeking a development partner for the City owned property at 3900 Boulevard SE. The City received 12 responses which were reviewed and discussed by the City Council on March 22. The Council articulated their top priorities to guide selection, which included the degree of housing affordability, home ownership opportunities and the inclusion of a neighborhood center. Habitat was selected to proceed into an exclusive negotiation agreement with the City as their proposal achieves all three objectives to a high degree.
