The revitalization project, called The Commons at Martineztown, includes converting the existing 96 public housing units to Project Based Vouchers through a combination of Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) and Section 18 Disposition, to affect the recapitalization of the existing buildings located in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
The property provides housing to seniors and disabled residents as well as families with children and is currently owned and operated by AHA. The site is located on east edge of downtown Albuquerque in the historic Martineztown neighborhood and on the El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro National Historic Trail.
These affordable apartments are located at:
320 Roma Avenue Northeast,
415 Fruit Avenue Northeast and
615 Arno Street Northeast, Albuquerque, New Mexico,
near the corner of Lomas Boulevard at Broadway Blvd, in historic Martineztown neighborhood. The freshly renovated apartment community has 1, 2 , 3 and 4 bedroom apartment units for rent.
This property is funded through HUD’s Public Housing program. These properties are typically owned and managed by a Public Housing Authority. These properties tend to be much older, as no new public housing has been built in many years. Since the Federal budget has historically (and notoriously) underfunded public housing renovations for decades, these properties tend to have higher vacancies due to uninhabitable units or liveable units that are in poor condition. In addition, since all public housing properties offer rent subsidies, low-income residents only pay rent based on their incomes. For that reason, these properties tend to have longer waiting lists. Check our public housing waiting list data for more information. Since The Commons at Martineztown participates in the Public Housing program and has a property based subsidy, if you have a Section 8 voucher, you would have to give up your voucher to move in.
