Things keep getting better at Broadleaf Arbor! Thanks for sharing this update, LMC Construction.

🌟 Empowering Tenants and Transforming Communities in Seattle 🌟 In the heart of downtown Seattle, a story of resilience and change is unfolding. For over a decade, tenants at properties managed by Metropolitan Management Co. have faced numerous challenges due to neglect and mismanagement. Persistent issues like leaks, pests, and poor maintenance have plagued affordable housing units, exacerbating the housing crisis. But change is on the horizon. Through collective action, advocacy, and a commitment to justice, tenants are fighting back, demanding better living conditions, and holding landlords accountable. This fight is about more than just bricks and mortar; it's about ensuring that everyone has access to safe, affordable housing. 🏡 A Brighter Future: Reformed Housing Management: Imagine a future where every apartment building is well-maintained, surrounded by green spaces, and managed by professionals who prioritize tenant welfare. Empowered Communities: Tenants actively participating in community events, attending meetings with local officials, and accessing vital resources and support systems. Safe and Healthy Living Environments: Families enjoying clean and safe living spaces, children playing in secure playgrounds, and a community thriving together. This vision is within our reach, but it requires our collective effort. Let's continue to advocate for tenant rights, push for stricter enforcement of housing laws, and support initiatives that prioritize people over profits. Together, we can build a future where everyone has a place to call home. 🏠💪 #AffordableHousing #TenantRights #CommunityEmpowerment #SeattleHousing #Advocacy #ChangeMakers

Affordable housing is an important topic of discussion in construction!

I'm all 😍 😍 for any statement, be it a testimony, a social media post, or an over dinner comment, that talks about #supplychain, #wastereduction, and the human case (not just the business case) for #modularconstruction.

Heard deep echoes of "The Grapes of Wrath" in Mary C. Daly’s (head of the San Francisco Fed) keynote today at the NICRC community development conference. I couldn’t help but draw parallels between Steinbeck's tale of hardship, struggle, and displacement in her remarks on the state of housing in America. Daly shed light on a stark reality: families forced to leave their homes, their communities, and the very places their ancestors have lived for generations, all in search of affordable living. Cities like Boise, once symbols of affordable living, are now on the frontline of this exodus. The included chart comparing median home value to income over time spotlights the central challenge. What creative solutions are emerging in your area to combat this issue? How are we keeping the dream of affordable home ownership alive for young families? #HousingCrisis #AffordableHousing #EconomicDisplacement #CommunityDevelopment #NICRC2024 #SustainableLiving #HousingSolutions #AmericanDreamReimagined #HomeOwnershipChallenges #EconomicInequality #HousingPolicy

🏡✨ **Exciting News for Affordable Housing in Polk County, Florida!** ✨🏡 🌟 Imagine a community where affordable housing meets comprehensive support services for high-need families. Blue Sky Communities is making this vision a reality with the groundbreaking of Jersey Commons in Winter Haven. Here's why this development is a game-changer: - Three buildings offering 68 one- and two-bedroom units - Rents ranging from $402 to $964 per month based on area median income limits - Partnership with CASL and Tri-County Human Services for coordinated residential services 🤝 Mayor Nathaniel Birdsong rightly calls this initiative a powerful collaboration setting a new standard in the community.

So honored to be asked to testify before the US Senate's Subcommittee on Housing about how Fading West is working to solve the nationwide housing crisis. It's clear that industry and governments must work together to tackle this issue. We believe that modular construction can play a key role in cutting costs and speeding up construction. Let's work together to make affordable housing a reality for all Americans. #UShousingcrisis #modularconstruction #FadingWest
