Gainesville Housing Authority wins $25M federal grant to overhaul East Gainesville housing

The Gainesville Housing Authority and the City of Gainesville have received a $25.1 million Choice Neighborhoods Initiative grant from HUD to redevelop the Lake Terrace and Pine Meadows public housing properties. The project will expand the sites from 180 units to roughly 500 mixed-income townhomes and apartments along the East University Avenue corridor. GHA and the city were among only four communities nationwide selected for the award, which follows a 2023 planning grant and two years of community engagement.
