A mixed-income apartment complex meant to house families is underway in Oak Cliff.
The Catholic Housing Initiative broke ground Tuesday on the complex at Beckley Avenue and 12th Street, on the site of Dallas County’s Oak Cliff sub courthouse.
Dallas County is building a $33-million government center and three-story parking garage a few blocks away and is leasing this 3-acre site to the nonprofit.
The Gateway Oak Cliff apartments will have 230 homes, and 184 of them will be available to families whose income is 60% or less than the adjusted median income, or about $51,700.
It will have a parking garage and “modern, clean, stylish interior design colors, textures and features,” according to a description given to KXAS.
Construction on Gateway Oak Cliff is expected to be complete in 2023. It’s is near the Interstate 35 deck park, known as the Southern Gateway Park.
