Carriage Place Apartments is one of the largest attainable housing developments in Oakland County. With 234 newly-renovated affordable units, it’s home to a diverse community of families, singles and seniors. The property features lakeside views, a spacious outdoor green space, convenient on-site laundry facilities, recreational amenities, and a resident-accessible computer lab.
Originally constructed in 1968 as a Section 9 Public Housing Development, Carriage Place Apartments is one of several transformational projects to have taken place across Michigan under a Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) Conversion. This HUD supported program encourages housing agencies to move their developments from Section 9 Public Housing to the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program. Not only does this program open new flexibilities for residents on how they use their rental assistance, it also paves the way to rehabilitating every facet of the building.
A $40.3M complete renovation of the building and all units was completed in late 2022. No corner of the 150,230 square-foot building was left untouched – From infrastructure like plumbing, new roofs, windows and HVAC systems to upgrades in lighting, security and recreation. Final landscaping work and community program implementation continue through 2024.
