Michael Wong, the executive director of the Harrisonburg Redevelopment and Housing Authority, said during an HRHA Liaison Committee meeting Wednesday that the expected allocation of low-income housing tax credits will help the project get off the ground.
"And then we'll be able to start the construction of the senior housing at Bluestone Town Center probably mid to late 2025," Wong said. "So, we get awarded the tax credits, you know, complete the construction document site plan for that specific section, and be able to move forward with that."
Beyond senior housing, the nearly-900-unit mixed-income development along Garber's Church Road will also feature single-family homes for sale, and eventually, single-and-multifamily rental properties.
