Two rental affordable housing communities are expected to be introduced to the area. The Athens Planning Commission approved the Tyler Park and Kershaw Greene affordable housing developments last month. The developer of the two projects is Woda Cooper Companies, which is the same company that developed the Nelsonville School Commons and the Beaumont Greene senior living community. The Tyler Park and Kershaw Greene development projects, multifamily three-story rental communities to be located off of Luhrig Road and State Route 682 near University Estates, are both expected to contain more than 50 units that range from one bedroom to three. The development will also include a community space and recreation space for the residents to use and onsite management, according to Woda Cooper Companies.
