We’re grateful to Mayor Christenson, Mayor Keefe and WinnDevelopment for their continued partnership and leadership in strengthening these communities.” “WE’RE STILL HERE!” Since 1947 MALDEN AUTO BODY Book online: Maldenauto.com 49 Robin St., Everett, MA 617-389-3030 * Maldenab@yahoo.com Over 79 years of exceptional service! Massone Family Owned & Operated The second state grant, $7 million from the HousingWorks Infrastructure Program, will fund extraordinary site costs, including blasting, earthwork, roads and utilities to facilitate the development of 51 aff ordable homeownership condominiums on the Overlook property. Malden has been materially underserved by homeownership programs despite being an eligible Gateway City with only fi ve income-restricted homeownership units funded in the city to date. The 51 homes are designed for working families, serving households earning up to 80% and 120% of Area Median Income (AMI) with more than half off ering two or more bedrooms. “These grants represent a signifi cant step towards the redevelopment of these parcels at Overlook Ridge,” said WinnDevelopment President Adam Stein. “We are grateful for the eff orts of the city of Malden and the Commonwealth’s support of this project so we can deliver muchneeded rental and for sale housing for households of all ages and incomes.” Overlook Ridge is a largescale, master-planned development spanning the cities of Malden and Revere and built on the site of a former rock quarry that has been transformed into a nearly 1,977unit residential community over two decades. Every unit constructed to date is market-rate rental. This next phase of construction will introduce much-needed aff ordable housing into the development, which is an opportunity for families and seniors to live in high-quality homes close to downtown Boston and proximate to key transportation links. The phase is being carried out as a joint effort between WinnDevelopment and AC Residential LLC to complete the original vision for the master-planned community to construct affordable apartment homes and condominiums. The investment is expected to generate approximately 1,400 construction jobs, 140 permanent jobs and an estimated $2.2 million in annual local tax revenue at full buildout. The project is located within an Environmental Justice area and will expand access to housing opportunities while enhancing transportation safety and accessibility for residents, pedestrians, cyclists, seniors and people with disabilities. Administered by the Massachusetts Executive Offi ce of Housing and Livable Communities (EOHLC), the program awards competitive grants to municipalities for a variety of infrastructure projects associated with housing development. Funds are awarded based on a project’s nexus with housing, transportation, infrastructure and community development needs. As the development arm of Boston-based WinnCompanies, WinnDevelopment creates and revitalizes high-impact mixed-income apartment properties through award-winning new construction, renovation and adaptive reuse techniques.
