Currently, the rehabilitation is over 50% complete, with total renovation to be completed by the end of 2009. These improvements include rehabilitation of the units, structural and mechanical upgrades to the buildings, and improvements to the buildings’ curb appeal.

Ohio Capital Corporation for Housing launched the acquisition and rehabilitation project in April 2003 and formed Community Properties of Ohio Management Services. The Community Properties Initiative has relied heavily on many significant partnerships, including the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). HUD’s extensive cooperation has assisted OCCH in developing a higher quality portfolio for affordable housing in Columbus.

The Community Properties Initiative has truly been a community effort, involving numerous organizations, several corporate investors, HUD, and many other government and local organizations.
CPO is not just about providing quality affordable housing; additionally, services are provided for the residents that can nurture and improve their lives.
