Affordable Housing Alliance set to unveil latest project with ribbon cutting ceremony

“Some people thought we’d never get a shovel in the ground,” said Donna Blaze, CEO of the Affordable Housing Alliance (AHA), in October 2014. Today, nearly a year and a half later, the Allen House Apartments are complete and will be celebrating with a ribbon cutting ceremony on March 10th, 2016 from 11:00am – 1:00pm. Located at 477 Stagecoach Road in Millstone, the Allen House Apartments consist of 10 units for senior residents ages 62 and over, on a 4 acre lakeside property, that meet the low to moderate income guidelines.

According to The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, a single occupant’s minimum income must not exceed $30,600/year. In turn, two occupants combined minimum income must surpass $34,950/year. On par with the mission of the Affordable Housing Alliance, the Allen House Apartments will help Millstone Township reach its affordable housing obligation.

The Affordable Housing Alliance is honored to continue serving our mission of improving the quality of life for all New Jersey Residents by developing and preserving affordable housing, by providing services to maintain housing affordability, by providing housing education, and by helping communities meet their legal and moral housing obligations.

Allen House truly exemplifies the accomplishments that can be achieved with municipalities’, finance partners, and AHA’s commitment to meeting the needs of all citizens no matter the income, age or race. The Affordable Housing Alliance would like to thank all participating parties once again for their time, determination and efforts into making the Allen House another successful project.

The success of this project is due to collaboration among Millstone Township, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Federal Home Loan Bank of NY, NeighborWorks America and the Affordable Housing Alliance. The Alliance would also like to thank Congressman Chris Smith, the consulting engineers, Leon S. Avakian Inc., the contractor, C. Raymond Davis & Sons INC., and Senior Associate, Asish Patel, from the Monarch Housing Associates for all of their contributing efforts.
