From Urbanize Los Angeles:

In 2017, Los Angeles city officials joined with The Michaels Organization and Bridge Housing Corporation to launch the redevelopment of the Jordan Downs public housing complex in Watts.  In the five years that have followed, blocks of 1940s apartment buildings have been demolished, making way for an "urban village" with more than 700 homes, nine acres of park space, and a shopping center known as Freedom Plaza.

From WBAP Radio:

The Fort Worth Stop Six Neighborhood will soon have more housing, amenities and job opportunities.

Demolition for the 1950s-era J.A. Cavile Place public housing community is underway to make room for a mixed-used development.

From the El Paso Herald-Post:

Sundt Construction recently completed its renovation of the Housing Authority of the City of El Paso’s (HACEP) Sherman residential community.

“I’m proud of our team for showing resilience and preserving during these difficult times and placing a huge amount of importance on the job and end goal,” said Luis Licon, Sundt’s project manager. “The residents and their families now have the joy of a new home during these turbulent times.”

Michigan-based commercial real estate finance company Red Oak Financial has provided a $2.8 million loan for Hunt Manor, a 15-unit apartment community in Washington D.C.’s Deanwood area.
