Mayor Muriel Bowser announced 12 projects that will provide more than 800 units of affordable housing in the District. These projects represent nearly $82.2 million in public funding and will house approximately 1,760 District residents.
“Washingtonians in all eight wards should have access to quality affordable housing,” said Bowser. “My administration is committed to producing, preserving and protecting affordable housing across the city.”
Bowser committed an historic $100 million for the Housing Production Trust Fund. This effort makes good on Bowser’s pledge to use those dollars for the production, preservation and protection of affordable housing.
The 804 affordable units include the preservation of 466 units and the production of 338 new units. In addition, 83 units will be used as permanent supportive housing units for the homeless, which supports the mayor’s goal to end homelessness in the District by 2020.
