East Village Development loses out on tax credits

According to the Kansas City Business Journal, East Village Apartments, to be the first of the extensive re-developments proposed in the area surrounding Old St. Patrick has missed out on special housing credits awarded at the end of last week.

This is another set-back for the developers and a disappointment for the Oratory which could only benefit from additional, new low-income and market-rate housing in the neighborhood. This first construction was to be on 10th street between Cherry and Locust, site of a demolished motel.
