Nearly 80 Affordable Housing Units Open In Denver's Westwood Neighborhood

DENVER (CBS4)- The City of Denver is welcoming nearly 80 affordable housing units to the Westwood community. Denver's Department of Housing Stability teamed up with Gorman & Co. on Tuesday for the grand opening of Avenida del Sol.

The near 79-unit community is located at 5048 Morrison Road with units ranging from 1-3 bedrooms. All units are income-restricted and include households earning up to 30% of the area median income, 40%, 60% or 80% of the area median income.

"Access to affordable and safe housing is key for our hard-working individuals and families throughout Denver, including in Westwood," said HOST Executive Director Britta Fisher in a statement. "We're proud to partner with Gorman & Company to provide local Denver funds toward these much-needed affordable homes."

This is the latest city-supported affordable housing development to open in Denver.
