Katten served as legal counsel to Affirmed Housing Group (Affirmed), a leading developer of affordable housing throughout California, in connection with its Spring View development, a transit-oriented affordable housing community in La Mesa, California, utilizing tax-exempt bonds, low-income housing tax credits and Infill Infrastructure Grant program funds provided by the California Department of Housing and Community Development.
Katten counseled Affirmed on all aspects of the acquisition, development and financing of the transaction, including the ground lease with the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System to convert its ground-level metro station parking lot into a nearly $116 million affordable housing community. The development will include 145 affordable homes above a parking garage to accommodate commuter parking.
Affordable Housing and Community Development Partner David Cohen led the transaction.
