Housing construction for Western Heights includes four phases. Phase 1, which will take approximately 18 months, will provide 76 rental units, including 31 subsidized replacement units, 30 affordable units and 15 market rate units. Phase 2 is projected to be completed in 2026, Phase 3 in 2027 and Phase 4 in 2028.
As part of the Transforming Western plan, the 196 units of affordable housing currently at Western Heights will be rebuilt along with an anticipated addition of 283 new units of affordable and market-rate housing to create a diverse, mixed-income community. The property’s location will allow various choices in housing style and highlight the aspirational views of the city and mountains. Brinshore Development and KCDC will lead the housing elements of the plan.
