Sally Schwenn, Arizona Market President for Gorman and Company shares our excitement on our Soluna project being awarded the 2022 Brian Mickelson Housing Hero Award Recipient for Outstanding Affordable Housing Initiative Project by the Arizona Housing Forum.

Gorman & Company, in partnership with the Phoenix Housing Department Corporation (PHDC) and the City of Phoenix, created Soluna, a 177 affordable and market-rate unit Choice Neighborhoods Initiative project designed to improve the Edison-Eastlake Community (EEC) in Phoenix. The intent of Soluna is to reshape and revitalize the EEC neighborhood and encourage a new sense of pride within the community. The redevelopment has capitalized on transit-oriented development opportunities, deconcentrating poverty, and ensuring long-term housing affordability in this centrally located community of Phoenix.

The project consists of two four-story buildings containing one-, two-, and three-bedroom units and one two-story building containing four- and five-bedroom units. The community space for this project, Aeroterra Community Center (ACC), is located facing 19th street where a gateway monument and plaza have been created to denote a main entrance to the EEC where interactions between individuals and families will be encouraged.
Soluna I and Soluna II represent the first phase of the EEC One-Vision Housing Phasing Master Plan. Soluna I is financed using 9% Low Income Housing Tax Credits and Soluna II is financed using 4% Low Income Housing Tax Credits.
