Housing Strategy

The Housing Strategy builds a neighborhood where high-quality, accessible, and diverse housing options are affordable to households of all incomes. Greater Corktown stands on the brink of major investment and a period of transition. The strategy aims to ensure that residents of all incomes can remain in the neighborhood, and experience and participate in the neighborhood’s economic activity. 

CKG residents will have diverse housing options designed with features and amenities they have identified as priorities. Residents at CKG and other affordable housing communities will be protected from future displacement through the preservation and expansion of affordable units. New mixed-income housing development at CKG and throughout Greater Corktown will meet high standards for design, safety, sustainability, and accessibility. 

Housing will be affordable to households with incomes up to 30%, 60%, 80%, 120% AMI and above. The Plan will create: 

  • 86 replacement units for returning CKG residents
  • 65 Project-Based Vouchers (“PBV”) replacement units for very low-income households committed by the Michigan State Housing Development Authority
  • 331 Low-Income Housing Tax Credit affordable units
  • 158 workforce units (affordable for 80%-120% AMI)
  • 161 market-rate units
  • 40 affordable homeownership opportunities
