Herman Gardens targeted for redevelopment

The once-notorious Herman Gardens is planned for redevelopment as market rate and low income housing as well as retail. Officials predict construction will begin in summer 2007.

Excerpt from article:

The plan starts with a name change: Gardenview Estates. Close to 920 units total will be built: 496 rentals and 424 for-purchase homes, including single-family detached houses, lofts and condos. About half of the rentals and homes will be offered at market rate and the other half will be for low-income families. Prices have not yet been set. Small retail stores also are part of the plan.
