KISSIMMEE, Fla. — A big celebration was held in Kissimmee Wednesday morning as community leaders broke ground on a new affordable housing development aimed at helping more residents find quality, accessible homes.
The new development, called Alora Lofts, will be a four-story apartment building on Windsor Drive featuring 88 units.
Artist renderings show a modern community with a range of amenities, including a fitness center, swimming pool and outdoor grill area.
The apartments will be reserved for people earning between 30% and 70% of the area median income, providing more affordable housing options for eligible residents.
Construction is now underway, and renters are expected to begin moving into the new apartments late next year.
