The NRP Group and University Hospitals Cut Ribbon on The Davis Affordable Housing Community in Glenville Neighborhood

CLEVELAND, OH – Local Cleveland officials joined The NRP Group, a vertically integrated, best-in-class developer, builder and manager of multifamily housing, and University Hospitals (UH), one of the nation’s leading health care systems, for a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the grand opening of The Davis Apartments (The Davis), a 52-unit affordable housing apartment community, and the UH Community Wellness Center in Cleveland s Glenville neighborhood.
The community is The NRP Group s third “Health and Housing” development, conceived to address social determinants of health (SDOH). The first project, Residences at Career Gateway in Columbus, Ohio, opened in 2018; the second, Via Sana in the Clark-Fulton neighborhood of Cleveland opened in 2022. Each of these affordable housing communities was created in partnership with the City of Cleveland, leveraging cross-sector collaboration, and aiming to address historic neighborhood disinvestment through new construction. This is the second of UH s Community Wellness Centers; the first opened in Bedford, Ohio, earlier this year.
The history of University Hospitals as an anchor institution in this community dates back 155 years, said Dr. Daniel Simon, President, Academic & External Affairs and Chief Scientific Officer at University Hospitals. We re proud to celebrate the completion of this community, and grateful to have had an opportunity to partner with The NRP Group. By providing high-quality housing and supportive services to its residents, The Davis enables our hospital staff to reach beyond our four walls to address SDOH in a historically disinvested neighborhood. This directly aligns with our institution s mission: ‘To Heal. To Teach. To Discover.
The Community Wellness Center serves as a venue for UH caregivers to engage with Glenville residents by delivering preventive health care and other solutions addressing SDOH. The center s offerings include healthy cooking demonstrations, a Food For Life Market, support for pregnant women and young mothers, programs to combat senior citizen isolation, telehealth services and training in workforce and financial literacy.
Located at East 105th Street and Churchill Road on the site of the former Harry E. Davis Elementary School, which had been vacant since 2006, The Davis comprises one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartment homes, along with four three-bedroom townhomes, and serves as home to individuals and families with incomes equal to or below 60 percent of the Area Median Income (AMI).
Amenities at The Davis include a community room, a fitness center, laundry facilities, a playground, a business center, trash/recycling rooms on each floor, a pet-friendly atmosphere and controlled access for added security.
Glenville is located less than a mile from University Circle, home to Case Western Reserve University, the Cleveland Clinic, the Cleveland Museum of Art and the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, as well as shops, restaurants and grocery stores. The Davis proximity to these anchor institutions and employment opportunities lays a strong foundation for making these centers of learning and jobs accessible to individuals of all income levels.
“We acknowledge that a substantial portion of the direct medical costs for our Black, Latinx, and Asian-American neighbors are avoidable and related to health inequities. Today, the UH wellness center at Glenville is one way we are working to change that, said Celina Cunanan, Chief Diversity, Equity & Belonging Officer, at University Hospitals.
Funding for the project, which was designed by RDL Architects, was provided by Ohio Finance Housing Agency (OHFA), as well as RiverHills Bank and PNC Bank.
The NRP Group is dedicated to creating affordable communities that provide residents with opportunities for long-term success, said J. David Heller, President and CEO of The NRP Group. We wouldn t be standing here at The Davis today without the tireless efforts of City of Cleveland officials and University Hospitals staff.
The Davis is named after Harry E. Davis, a Cleveland native who served four consecutive terms in the Ohio State House before becoming the first African American member of the Cleveland Civil Service Commission and serving as an Ohio State Senator.

Covenant Capital Completes Sale of 640-Unit Seven Lakes at Carrollwood Apartment Homes in Sought-After Tampa Neighborhood

TAMPA, FL – Covenant Capital Group, a leading real estate investment manager with an exclusive focus on value-add investments in apartment communities, sold Seven Lakes at Carrollwood, a 640-unit multifamily property located in Tampa, Florida.
Seven Lakes at Carrollwood, a garden style apartment community located in Tampa, Florida, sold in October. The multifamily property sits on over 39 acres and offers residents unique amenities like a sparkling swimming pool, fully equipped fitness center, and an upscale clubhouse. Seven Lakes at Carrollwood required a comprehensive renovation of the interiors, exteriors and amenities of the property to be in line with current renters expectations.
The property is nearby abundant retail options at the Plaza Citrus Park Mall, Westfield Citrus Park Mall and the Westchase Town Center – all within a ten-mile radius of Seven Lakes at Carrollwood. Also, the property s strategic location in Tampa offers one of the most dynamic economies in the state, driven by financial services, healthcare and education.
Seven Lakes at Carrollwood exemplifies Covenant s philosophy of revitalizing and extending the lifespan of strategically important apartment communities. According to NMHC and NAA s latest research on housing demand, an estimated 4.3 million housing units need to be built by 2035 and an additional 3.7 million after 2035 to keep up with annual projected demand.1
The U.S. can t meet the growing nationwide need for apartment inventory without preserving and extending the lifespan of existing units that are falling into disrepair, said Govan D. White, managing partner and co-founder of Covenant Capital Group. Covenant has invested heavily to update communities and make vast improvements in environmental efficiencies, adding to long-term sustainability. This keeps valuable housing inventory in high-growth areas affordable and accessible.

Texas Capital and FHLB Dallas Celebrate The Opening of Senior Apartment Community in Stop Six Neighborhood of Fort Worth

FORT WORTH, TX – Local real estate developers, community partners and residents celebrated the grand opening of Cowan Place Senior Living. It was built with the assistance of a $750,000 Affordable Housing Program (AHP) subsidy provided by the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas through one of its members, Texas Capital Bank in the Stop Six neighborhood of Fort Worth, Texas.
The development is part of a transformation plan designed to improve the Stop Six neighborhood in Fort Worth with affordable housing and neighborhood amenities. The plan includes replacement of the former Cavile Place public housing community with new, mixed-income rental residences in six phases of development. It includes a neighborhood hub for recreation, educational, health and safety services, commercial districts and space for healthcare and educational, economic and other support services.
In addition to affordable housing for seniors, Cowan Place amenities include rooms for a library and theater, fitness studio, salon, billiards, crafts and other spaces for private meetings with health care professionals.
The AHP funds were vital in closing funding gaps to make sure that we could finish construction on this project, said Mary-Margaret Lemons, Fort Worth Housing Solutions president. We could not have finished this project without the money provided by the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas and Texas Capital as a partner. It was critical for us to get over the finish line and finish this during COVID, and so it was really a game changer for us to be able to have full funding of this project to get started.
FHLB Dallas awards AHP subsidies through its member financial institutions to benefit very low- to moderate-income households across its five-state District.
These are the type of projects that we get involved in because of the impact that they have on communities such as this; we want to assist in making life better for the individuals, businesses and communities in Fort Worth, said Worley Barker, director of Community Development Lending and Investments for Texas Capital.
Affordable Housing Program (AHP) funds are intended to assist FHLB Dallas members in financing the purchase, construction and/or rehabilitation of owner-occupied, rental or transitional housing, as well as housing for homeless individuals in their community. AHP funds must be used to benefit households with incomes at or below 80 percent of the median income for the area.
It can be difficult to develop affordable housing, and the AHP is a funding source that can help fill the gap to make a deal like this work, said Melanie Dill, community development and AHP rental manager at FHLB Dallas. Not only does the AHP help to fill a funding gap, but it can also help our members create new business opportunities, support their communities and meet CRA objectives.
