Coalition for Rochester Area Housing has supported creation of 2,000 housing units

ROCHESTER — The ribbon-cutting for a new 48-unit apartment building in southwest Rochester marked a 2,000-unit milestone for the Coalition for Rochester Area Housing. “One of the coalition’s top priorities is to help provide more rental housing options at 50% of the area median income or less,” Coalition Executive Director Ryan Cardarella said Thursday during the celebration of the new Restoration Glen complex at the 37-acre Mayowood Acres housing campus. Since the coalition was formed in 2017, it has supported the creation of more than 2,000 units of housing — 1,763 income-based rental units and 254 homeownership opportunities. As the latest project celebrating completion, Restoration Glen is the result of a partnership between Three Rivers Community Action and Bear Creek Development Center. It is designed to provide a mix of supportive housing and affordable family housing.
