ATLANTA — A partnership between MicroLife Institute and Hope Springs Housing has broken ground on Hope Springs Townhomes, an affordable housing development in the Hammond Park neighborhood of Atlanta. Hope Springs Townhomes will comprise 10 townhome-style units, which will be built by Middle Housing Co. This is MicroLife’s first project as a full-time developer.
Hope Springs Townhomes will provide housing to women coming out of incarceration for nonviolent offenses, as well as their children. The community will be available at 30 percent of the area median income. Hope Springs Housing plans to provide wraparound services and intensive case management to support the families at the property. The site will also feature common green spaces that will be available to the residents.
