Groundbreaking Ceremony – West Street Apartments –

Today we had our groundbreaking ceremony for our West Street Apartment Building. A wonderful turnout with over 90 in attendance!

West Street Apartments involves the removal of the blighting vacant structure at 1013 West Street and the new construction of a 3-story building including 5 vacant parcels on West Street along with the adjoining vacant lots – 1003, 1007, 1011, 1019, 1023 and 1027 West Street and 1012-1014 Miller Street. This new construction will consist of 42 one (1) and two (2) bedroom workforce apartments affordable to individuals and small families with total household income at or below 50% of area median income including 11 permanent supportive housing apartments for the homeless, those at risk of homelessness, and/or formerly homeless individuals or small families.

The project will include approximately 7,200 square feet of community services space which will consist of four programs operated by the Rescue Mission of Utica: Learning Center, Community Clothing Room, Food Pantry and the Representative Payee Program. These projects deliver clothing, food, employment training and skills, and representative payee services to the Utica community.
