Charles Hight Highrise 1 was originally built in 1967 and was part of a larger public housing development consisting of three Highrise buildings. In 2018, NWGHA partnered with Rea Ventures Group to revitalize the Highrise 1 building to offer modern, comfortable, apartment living for elderly individuals ages 62 and older. This project was NWGHA's second RAD conversion in its portfolio, and in conjunction with 4% LIHTCs, the rehabilitation process was completed in 2021.
