Chapel Hill Approves 2200 Homestead Project, Paves Way for More Affordable Housing
At its meeting last week, the Chapel Hill Town Council passed the 2200 Homestead Road project, paving the way for more affordable housing in the community.
For more than four years, the town has been planning to convert the 13 acres of land across the street from the Seymour Senior Center and down the road from Homestead Park into a mixed-income community with units set at below market price.
With the project’s conditional zoning application approved last week, 2200 Homestead is expected to include rental apartments and for-sale duplexes and townhomes surrounded by a variety of community amenities – including a multi-use greenway path, a basketball court, a co-op market, a bus stop, and playgrounds.
