The City of Alexandria has been awarded $14.3 million by the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) for three affordable housing projects across the city.
The projects cover a range of incomes based on the area median income (AMI), which is $105,500 for a one person household. The projects range from 40% of AMI — $42,200 for one person — up to 80% of AMI — $84,400 for one person.
The funding will go to help build:
- Community Housing Partners’ Witter Place ($3.4 million), a 94-unit affordable housing development at 2712 Duke Street
- Housing Alexandria’s Sansé and Naja project ($8.1 million), a 474-unit affordable housing development at the intersection of Mount Vernon Avenue and West Glebe Road
