Did you know? One of the ways we unlock access to housing at Amherst is by working with local municipalities. Check out our project in St. Petersburg, Florida where we launched our first Workforce Housing Bonus Density project. We transformed vacant land into 13 new housing units, four of which will be dedicated workforce housing units for decades. These public-private partnerships play a vital role in increasing the housing supply in high-demand neighborhoods.
