This phase involves the construction of two buildings and revitalization of the Perkins, Somerset and Oldtown neighborhoods. It also includes 152 mixed-income units.

"Phase III is a crucial component to achieving our overarching goal of fostering a sustainable, mixed-income community," HABC Executive Director, Janet Abrahams, said.
