Project Highlights

TOURO SHAKSPEARE

#TeamLHC joined housing partners in Algiers to break ground on the historic Touro Shakspeare site, which will be redeveloped into an affordable senior living facility. LHC awarded $16 million in Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds and $982,554 in Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC). The project was also a recipient of LHC's Prime-3 Program, resulting in over $5M in Community Development Block Grant funds, in collaboration with the Louisiana Office of Community Development Disaster Recovery. We can’t wait to see the final product!

MID-CITY LOFTS

Collaboration is KEY, and #TeamLHC is happy to be here in Lake Charles today, as we celebrate the grand opening of the Mid-City Lofts! “As we shape the future of affordable housing, partners are essential in helping us create accessible housing that benefits everyone," explains LHC Executive Director Kevin Delahoussaye. "This is just one of many projects we have partnered with HRI Communities that demonstrates the importance of our work in communities striving for quality housing after a natural disaster."
