Coyne Road Apartments
CAN-DO recently received a comprehensive permit to create two new rental units. A modular duplex will be constructed at the rear of an existing single-family dwelling in Waban. Some minor renovations will be undertaken on the exterior of the house. Each of the duplex units will include three bedrooms, one and and a half bathrooms, a living room, a dining room and a laundry room.
Funding for the $1.3 million project will come from the federal HOME and CDBG funds administered by the City of Newton's Housing Office; Community Preservation Funds from the City of Newton; grants from Charlesbank Homes and the Central Congregational Legacy Fund as well as equity from CAN-DO. We will apply to one of our local banking partners for a construction loan. In addition, we will seek funding from the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative and other green funders to enable us to incorporate green building techniques and materials into the project.
