Yes for Affordable Homes

12/06/2016

Did you hear about The Ellington? It's because of YOUR love and support for that has led to this moment. We are incredibly excited to see the housing bond go towards preventing the displacement of residents, and creating more and deeper affordability. 95% of the units at The Ellington are 2- or 3-bedrooms, which means families most affected by the housing crisis will have a safe home in which to live.

There is much more work to be done, but The Ellington is a reminder that our collaboration and hard work produces amazing results! Let's continue working together for more affordable housing solutions.

“We’re going to acquire it as a means to prevent displacement of existing residents,” said Housing Commissioner Dan Saltzman. “But also we’re going to keep the units affordable, and we’re going to make more units affordable.”
