TAMPA, FLA. — Related Urban Development Group and the Tampa Housing Authority will host a ribbon cutting ceremony on Thursday, Feb. 19, for Canopy at West River, a new 384-unit affordable housing community in Tampa. Delivered in two phases, the community spans four towers and offers a mix of one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom floorplans. Amenities at the complex include a community room with a kitchenette; game room with a TV; business center with computer/internet access; fully equipped fitness centers; smart home technology; electric vehicle (EV) charging stations; and a future NFL Alumni Obstacle Course that “reinforces the development’s focus on active living.”

Situated within the larger West River mixed-use development, The Canopy at West River apartments are reserved for residents earning between 22 percent and 80 percent of the area median income (AMI), with long-term affordability supported through a combination of Project-Based Vouchers (PBV), Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) programs, National Housing Trust Fund (NHTF) financing and Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC).
