Financing has been finalized and construction has begun on a new $48.9 million housing development at Enfield Manor designed for older and disabled residents. Tobacco Valley Development Corp., a nonprofit affordable housing developer created by the Enfield Housing Authority, recently announced that the project closed July 31 and construction began immediately. The $48.9 million redevelopment will replace the 80 existing outdated units of housing with 99 modern, energy-efficient homes across two buildings. Funding for the project came from a variety of sources, including federal and state governments, the Enfield Housing Authority, and Grow America — a corporate equity fund focused on providing capital for affordable housing. Construction will be in two stages, with the first new building slated for completion by next summer, at which time residents will be able to move in. Demolition and construction of the second building is expected to begin shortly after, with completion slated for 2027.
