Raleigh City Council has approved bond funding to support the redevelopment of the city-owned Duplex Village site – partnering with Blue Ridge – to deliver a 120-unit, long-term affordable housing community near future Bus Rapid Transit, expanding access to stable housing for low- and very low-income residents.

Sound Transit on Monday said it will award to Multi-Service Center and Blue Ridge Cascade the development contract for this 230-unit affordable housing project next to the Federal Way Downtown Station.

Wake County is celebrating the start of construction on Parkside Apartments, a 144-unit affordable housing community that will help working families stay close to jobs, schools, transit and opportunity.

The project is one of the first major efforts funded through Charlotte’s $100 million housing bond, which voters approved last November.

The project by Blue Ridge Atlantic Development could be financed through the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit Program, which is administered by the North Carolina Housing Finance Agency, Schaefer said.

The stage is officially set for a sizable affordable housing project along a corridor near Atlanta’s airport where College Park leadership expects an influx of investment soon.
