The North Hill property consists of approximately 33 unimproved acres off of Richmond Highway originally acquired about 30 years ago using federal funds to support low income area development. The Fairfax County Redevelopment and Housing Authority has put together a public-private partnership that will transform North Hill by keeping 1/3 as a park, 1/3 into mixed income and affordable multifamily rental apartments, and 1/3 as for-sale townhomes.

CHPPENN I, LLC, the developer selected through a competitive bidding process plans to construct up to 279 multi-family rental units in six separate, high quality, urban designed buildings with structured parking. Of the 279 units, 195 will be for households with an annual income at or below 60% of the Area Median Income (AMI), 56 of the units will be for households with an annual income at or below 50% of the AMI, and 28 of the units will be for households with an annual income at or below 30% of the AMI.  (Area AMI for a family of four is $108,600.)  In addition, 60 of the multi-family will be dedicated to affordable senior housing.  The for-sale townhouses will be at market rate, but support for qualifying new home buyers.  For more information, visit http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/rha/north_hill/.
