CLEVELAND — KeyBank Community Development Lending & Investment has provided a $6 million construction loan for the acquisition and rehabilitation of the Stuyvesant Motor building in Cleveland. The borrower, Woda Cooper Communities, plans to transform the historic five-story building into Prospect Yard, a 42-unit affordable housing development. The property will serve persons earning at or below 60 percent of the area median income. Constructed in 1911, the building originally housed a production plant, service center, garage and storage for Stuyvesant Motor Co. Kelly Frank of KeyBank originated the loan. CREA, Woda Group and Ohio Housing Finance Agency provided additional funding for the project. Completion is slated for May 2019.
