TAAHP member Prospera Housing Community Services broke ground on on its Village at Henderson Apartments on the south side of Corpus Christi. The new complex will add 88 affordable units to the market. Residents will have the option of two- and three-bedroom apartments.
The grant was awarded to TAAHP Member Gregory Housing Authority, which is spearheading the $8.6 million project. Construction began in December 2018 and is expected to be completed at the end of 2019.
