Project: Redevelopment of the Brand Whitlock/ Albertus Brown Homes
The LMHA is also working on a project to redevelop the Brand Whitlock/ Albertus Brown Homes.  This redevelopment project will utilize low-income housing tax credits (LIHTC) to create a mixed-income community.  The LMHA also plans to apply for a HOPE VI grant through HUD in 2009.  Please check back for more detailed information about our plans.
