PLAINFIELD, IND. — Woda Cooper Cos. has opened Harper’s Crossing, a 60-unit affordable housing community in the Indianapolis suburb of Plainfield. The $13.4 million development is situated in an opportunity zone and received a tax abatement from the city. The Indiana Housing & Community Development Authority awarded housing tax credits used to generate equity financing, enabling rents to be maintained at affordable levels.
Six of the units are accessible for those with physical disabilities. Amenities include free Wi-Fi, a community room, laundry room, fitness center, playground and patio. Monthly rents range from $345 to $1,095 depending on the size of the unit and income restriction. The community is reserved for those who earn up to 80 percent of the area median income.
Syndicator RBC Community Investments (RBCCI) provided primary financing through an equity investment by Huntington National Bank in a RBCCI-sponsored fund. In addition to the equity investment, Huntington National Bank also provided a construction loan. Cedar Rapids Bank & Trust provided the first mortgage.
Indianapolis-based Cripe was the project architect, BWI LLC served as general contractor and Sol Design + Consulting was the sustainability consultant. Woda Cooper’s management division will perform day-to-day property management and leasing.
