you are interested, or know someone you might refer, please

New Duplexes:
In 2006, we completed two new duplexes in the
500 block of SW Clay Street. The building designs are a variation
on the "bungalow" style common to some of Topeka's
older neighborhoods. The one-bedroom apartments provide long-term
housing to persons with disabilities and limited income. In
2007, we helped Breakthrough House, Inc. build a similar duplex
at 518 SW Western, and constructed another at 517 Western
for our own clients.
Our current project is construction of 5 more
duplexes (10 units) in the 1300 and 1400 blocks of SW Harrison
Street. We anticipate construction beginning by January 2008.
Three of the new duplexes will be one-bedroom units, and two
will have two-bedroom apartments.
