Goodbye Hilltop Housing

Demolition has begun at Hilltop Housing to make way for a new, mixed-income community.

Demolition is in full swing at , which is being torn down to make way for a $15 million, 204-unit mixed-income neighborhood with subsidized and market-rate apartments and townhomes.

Hilltop residents were relocated to other county-owned properties or to vacant units at the southernmost end of the development in preparation for the first of three phases of construction.

Once the first phase of construction is complete, in about 14 months, residents can return to new one- two- and three-bedroom apartments for the same subsidized rents.
