Chestnut Square is a rehabilitation of eleven historic multi-family buildings that encompass two-thirds of a city block in the Lower Belvidere neighborhood of Lowell. Built in 1910, these buildings formerly provided housing for families working in the Lowell Mills during the Industrial Revolution. Nine of the buildings are on the National Register of Historic Places. Caleb purchased and developed these buildings in 1998 to include 41 units and a community center. Chestnut Square Apartments are located close to downtown Lowell and 1 mile from the Boston Commuter Rail and MBTA bus line. The Caleb Group provides resident service coordination to assist in linking residents to the services they need within the community.

Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC)

Since this property has received funding in part through the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, a certain number of units are set aside for lower income households. Households must earn either less than 50% or 60% of the area median income (depending on the set-aside option chosen by the property owner) to qualify for these units. Rents in these units are capped at a maximum of 30% of the set-aside area median income (adjusted for unit size). Some rental units in this property may not be subject to LIHTC and therefore have higher rents and no maximum household income requirement.
