Riverside Homes
Riverside Homes consists of 191 units in 74 buildings scattered throughout the Cedar East, Riverside Park and 7-Corners neighborhoods of Minneapolis. The housing was originally re-developed by the West Bank CDC in the 1980s to implement plans generated by neighborhood residents to maintain lower density housing and preserve affordability. There are 135 units in rehabbed houses and 56 units in townhomes that were constructed in 1983-1984. 103 of the units are project-based Section 8. All residents must meet the eligibility requirements of the Low- Income Housing Tax Credit program.
In 1999 the housing had to be refinanced to extend affordability and renovate units which had experienced significant deferred maintenance. With the refinance, five housing cooperatives were joined together in the new entity, Riverside Homes. The leasehold co-ops still existed under the Riverside Homes framework until lack of participation resulted in their dissolution in 2016.
In 2016 the West Bank CDC and Mutual Management Company started working on another refinance of Riverside Homes
