West Hartford nonprofit breaks ground on $100M affordable housing project for Starkel Road campus

West Hartford Fellowship Housing, a nonprofit that for over 50 years has provided low-income housing for an older population and to people with disabilities, broke ground on a sweeping and transformative $100 million project that will modernize and expand upon its Starkel Road campus, ultimately providing 300 total units of in-demand housing. The plans will replace 23 of the 24 buildings on site with six new buildings. Construction will be done in four phases, with the first estimated to take about 18 months. The town, which is currently reviewing its new affordable housing plan, has set a goal to have 10 percent of its housing stock be considered affordable. Those types of units have appeared across town in the last few years, with most recent additions being properties managed by the West Hartford Housing Authority on New Park Avenue and the recent approval that will transform a former synagogue into affordable housing. The West Hartford Inn is also marked to become affordable housing.
