MILWAUKEE — The Annex Group has begun construction of Union at Rose Park, an affordable housing development in the Harambee neighborhood of Milwaukee. The 75-unit community is The Annex Group’s first development in Wisconsin. A number of city, state and federal funding sources, including 4 percent low-income housing tax credits, contributed to the $25.8 million project cost. Leases will be available with a variety of income caps that range from 30 percent of area median income to market-rate rents. The Annex Group will give preference to veteran renters for nine of the units. Amenities include a community room and fitness and business centers. The property site is adjacent to a park with basketball courts, a baseball field, playground and green space. Completion is slated for winter 2026.
