Ground was broken in Ann Arbor on Tuesday for the largest affordable housing unit in 45 years.
The Union at A2 will be a 250-unit development on Commerce Blvd. on Ann Arbor’s west side. The $82 million project is expected to be completed by the fall of 2026. It will feature one, two and three-bedroom apartments for households at 70% or below the area median income.
The Annex Group, based in Indianapolis, is the developer of the project. Vice-President of Development Ryan Clark said in a statement, with waitlists over two years at other nearby affordable housing communities, Union at A2 will provide a new modern development for 250 families to call home.
Among numerous grants and funding assistance, the development was awarded a loan of $3 million by the Ann Arbor Housing Commission.
