Housing Support Announced at Redbrook
The A.D. Makepeace Company welcomed Governor Maura Healey to Redbrook February 13 for an announcement of $158 million in low-income housing tax credit and subsidy awards for 14 affordable housing projects across the state.
Joined by Lieutenant Governor Kim Driscoll and Ed Augustus, Secretary of Housing and Livable Communities, Governor Healey spoke to about 70 state and local officials, grantees, and housing advocates for the formal announcement of the grants.
Among the awards was support for Cranberry Commons, a 62-unit, deeply affordable apartment community for seniors to be built at Redbrook by The Grantham Group.
“This is what it looks like when government takes real, meaningful action to make housing more affordable,” said Jim Kane, president and chief executive officer of the A.D. Makepeace Company following the event. “Governor Healey and her team, along with the state legislature, clearly have a genuine commitment to housing production and affordability. And the unique level of support from the Town of Plymouth, including the Selectboard, Planning Board, Community Preservation Committee, and of course Town Meeting show why America’s Hometown is such a special place.”
