Housing Nonprofit and Church Partner To Build Gilliam Place Apartments in Arlington, Virginia – PD&R Edge – April 2020
Gilliam Place, APAH’s newest development, is the result of APAH’s close partnership with Arlington Presbyterian Church and their journey to give back to the community using the church’s space.
In 2015, the county identified the need for an additional net 15,800 affordable units by 2040, roughly 600 net units per year. Because of its urgent need for affordable housing, the county welcomes development from both traditional and innovative sources. One recent innovative partnership between the Arlington Presbyterian Church (APC) and the nonprofit Arlington Partnership for Affordable Housing (APAH) resulted in Gilliam Place Apartments, which provides 173 affordable units in the Columbia Pike corridor.
