DHCD and Mi Casa Inc. breaks ground on affordable housing project in Historic Anacostia

👩🏽‍💻The Advoc8te hasn’t been able to find a press release about Friday’s groundbreaking but I am including an excerpt to the April 2017 press release:

“DHCD has awarded two vacant lots located at 1528 W Street SE and 1926 15th Street SE to Mi Casa, a nonprofit affordable housing developer, which will build a single family home on each lot for households earning no more than 50 percent of the area median income (AMI).

DHCD has also awarded four buildings to the Development Corporation of Columbia Heights (DCCH), a nonprofit community development corporation, which will rehabilitate four properties into five single family homes located at 1220 Maple View Place SE, 1648 U Street SE, 1518 W Street SE and 1326 Valley Place SE. Two houses will be available to households earning less than 50 percent of AMI; the others for households earning less than 80 percent of AMI.”
