Completed in late 2008, Ashford Parkside is a mixed-finance redevelopment property.

Ashford Parkside provides the first phase of replacement housing for the seniors that previously resided at Johnson Ferry East. This project was financed with 9% Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) transaction, a conventional loan and an HADC loan. The project has project-based, rental assistance demonstration (RAD), 60% LIHTC and market units. The HADC is the Owner and served as Co-Developer on the project.
