Prosperity Alliance partnered with True Homes and had the support from Pinnacle Bank for the development.
The townhomes will provide homeownership opportunities to families earning 80% of the area median income or below.
'The project marks a milestone in Charlotte's efforts to transform underutilized properties into lasting, community-oriented developments and is one of the latest investments supported by the city's Corridors of Opportunity initiative,' officials said in a news release.
