The NHP Foundation, in partnership with Change All Souls Housing Corp. and the Columbia Heights Village Tenants Association, announced the development of 1425 Harvard Street NW, the former parking lot of Columbia Heights Village apartments.
The ownership group closed on construction financing in July 2025, and construction began shortly thereafter. When completed in 2027, the development will deliver a seven-story, 108-unit affordable housing community designed by Shalom Baranes Associates and built by McCullough Construction.
The 108-unit Harvard Court development is backed by a public-private partnership. The District of Columbia Housing Finance Agency issued $48.26 million in tax-exempt bonds and underwrote more than $41 million in federal and DC Low-Income Housing Tax Credit equity. Financing partners include Hudson Housing Capital, Bank of America, DCHFA, and the DC Department of Housing and Community Development.
DC DHCD further strengthened the project with $24.29 million from its Housing Production Trust Fund 2022 NOFA, ensuring Harvard Court plays a major role in advancing the city’s affordable housing pipeline.
