New Affordable Homes Replace Aging Public Housing in Fort Worth
In Stop Six, the historic Fort Worth, Texas neighborhood, Enterprise is supporting Hughes House III, a mixed-income community and the fourth phase of a six-phase redevelopment effort under the city's HUD-supported Choice Neighborhood Transformation Plan. The broader initiative replaces the former Cavile Place public housing complex with high-quality homes while strengthening long-term neighborhood stability.
Developed by McCormack Baron Salazar in partnership with Fort Worth Affordability, Inc., an affiliate of Fort Worth Housing Solutions, the development offers 78 one- and two-bedroom apartments, with 54 homes affordable to households earning up to 60% AMI and 24 market-rate units. Four apartments will be reserved as permanent supportive housing for people experiencing homelessness, and 27 homes will receive project-based rental assistance, including units prioritized for existing community residents returning to the neighborhood. Amenities include a community room, a fitness center, a business center, a pool, a playground, and outdoor gathering spaces.
In Georgia, New Mixed-Income Development to Strengthen City's Economic Core
Enterprise will also invest in Parc at Solomon, a new mixed-income residential development bringing 69 homes to the heart of downtown Griffin, Georgia. Developed in partnership with Collaborative Housing Solutions, Inc., and the Housing Authority of the City of Griffin, the four-story community supports the city's broader efforts to revitalize its urban core while expanding access to high-quality, affordable housing options.
Parc at Solomon will include a mix of one- and two-bedroom apartments, with 62 homes dedicated to households earning 50% to 60% AMI. The building is designed to meet National Green Building Standard Bronze certification, promoting energy efficiency.
