LHC joins Partners for Groundbreaking of The Reserve at Joor Place

Baton Rouge, LA —Today, The Louisiana Housing Corporation (LHC) celebrated the groundbreaking of The Reserve at Joor Place in East Baton Rouge Parish. 360 units designed to be multifamily housing, designated at 30%, 60%, and 70% of the Area Median Income. 

The residential buildings will include three-story walkable buildings with hardiplank and brick exterior, along with energy efficient windows. Site amenities include a swimming pool, a dog park, a basketball court, a playground and a business center. Families will have the option to choose between various bedroom options, up to a 4-bedroom unit. 

"We understand the importance of development to a community, and again today, we are making a step in the right direction that will make a difference for families and communities," said LHC Executive Director Joshua G. Hollins. 

LHC awarded $74 million in Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds and $4.4 million in Low Income Housing Tax Credits. "The Louisiana Housing Corporation (LHC) is a highly valued partner, and their strategic awards will immensely assist many working families to find quality housing just 1.5 miles from the new Amazon Fulfillment Center and other industrial and corporate businesses in this area," said CEO Thomas C. Delahaye, CST Multifamily Real Estate Services. "LHC is an asset to the citizens of Louisiana."
