Preserving Orchard Park Apartments

Orchard Park Apartments is a former low-income development which recently aged out of its affordability term of 30 years. Because of this, Salem Housing Authority had identified this property as a priority for preservation efforts.

Salem Housing authority was able to establish a Special Limited Partnership Agreement between Orchard Park Preservation Partners Limited Partnership to acquire and operate the 224-unit complex located at 4100 Kacey Circle Northeast to serve low-income households. This project previously left affordability on 12/31/2021 and with SHA’s partnership will assist to bring this project back into affordability serving clients at or below 80% Area Median Income. 

In 2021, Orchard Park had a fire that affected 21 units. Construction work will begin on the 21 units impacted by the fire with an aim available this fall 2023.

Project Design: The general contractor and architectural firm have met on site and the project, and the project will use environmentally friendly materials, considering trauma informed design, to create a sense of community and ownership.

The Landscape will incorporate ecofriendly native plants an provide visual appealing property along the I-5 corridor.
