NEW: We’re investing $10 million in seven projects across Pennsylvania through our Mixed-Use Development Pilot Program. We need to add 450,000 new housing units in Pennsylvania by 2035 if we want to keep up with rising demand — and this program will convert unused land or buildings into more than 1,400 new homes and apartments across our Commonwealth. We’re taking action to not only build more housing — but also create safe, affordable, vibrant communities with new office spaces, parks, and libraries that will benefit everyone.
