Do subsidized single-family homes address Duluth’s housing needs?

I attended those public meetings in Morgan Park back in 2017ish and earlier, I believe. I do not recall the specifics, but what I do recall is that folks wanted to be able to downsize or slide over to housing that was single-level. They wanted to have options. Most folks needed to move out of their neighborhood and out of western Duluth to find that style of housing. I don’t recall a big outcry for single-family homes. Note that the Grand Ave Estates that is in Morgan Park (but feels more like lower Smithville) had a few design changes all along, getting praise by the Community Club active members. That project went from shared lot line townhomes to multiple apartment buildings that reminded me of the projects we just tore down and then built Harbor Highlands. That version came with income limits because of the subsidies the developer was looking for. Then it changed to what it is now, income requirements: two appointment buildings with single-level living (two stories with elevators) and some townhome styles as well. I would be interested in learning of it is still income based and how it impacted the need. We seldom look back to see what has worked and what hasn’t we just keep moving forward with whatever. Thats the issue with teh any and all approached. We do need a plan that includes numbers and look backs to see how we are doing and adjust as needed.

On more comment. This piece states “The development project, however, fails to adequately address Duluth’s housing deficit. Due to the elevated construction costs, a majority of Duluth residents will be unable to afford the new homes”. It would have been helpful to know what other projects they have coming up and what they have done over time to have some comparison to supportive statement of “project, however, fails to adequately address Duluth’s housing deficit”. Without that, it feels like this is more of an opinion but most likely an accurate one.

The new apartment that going up in Morgan Park on 88th–how do you sign up for one and how much are they going to be monthly?
