Look at the Progress!

Construction at Kindlewood Phase II continues to advance across all buildings. While not pictured here, solar panels have now been installed on the CRC roof, and interior work is progressing with painting, tile installation, and casework. Across the residential buildings, progress is steadily taking shape, with the multifamily building reaching the fifth floor and exterior work underway. The townhomes are nearing completion and beginning to reflect their final look, and we are excited to welcome residents this fall.

Exciting News!

“Later this summer, residents of Southwood will be able to access affordable early childhood education without having to go too far. The Early Learning Center at Hickory Hope in the Albemarle County community opens its doors and begins serving the area starting August 1. The center will provide bilingual early childhood education and care for children between the ages of 3 and 5.

Suzanne Bowers, who became the executive director of the Monticello Area Community Action Agency (MACAA) in October 2025, said this is a years-long project that is finally coming to fruition.

The Center will provide early childhood education to students Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., except major holidays. They will also provide free meals from the local nonprofit New Hill Development Corporation via their Beacon School Bitez program.“
