When the Housing Authority worked with DCED to tear down their aging units, replacement units were proposed to be funded with LIHTC. Thus was born the concept of Grandview Pointe. Located high above the Conemaugh River and close to recreation facilities, 24 Affordable Apartments for General Occupancy were constructed. The 1 and 2 bedroom apartments are organized for small families or singles in a Traditional Neighborhood Design. Every unit has a front and rear porch. The project incorporated PV and other green features. A large central Community Building, featuring a timber frame Community Room, provides laundry, mail, offices, maintenance and gathering spaces. Provisions for a future phase expansion were provided. Project was funded by PHFA PennHOMES and LIHTC.
