La Victoria Commons is a redevelopment project transforming four vacant parcels owned by the City of Tempe. It will house 104 affordable, for-rent apartments in 4 stories over podium parking with 19 for-sale one- and two-story townhomes.
La Victoria Commons is the result of a great partnership with the City of Tempe, Newtown CDC, the Tempe Coalition for Affordable Housing and city’s Hometown for All effort. This innovative partnership combines low-income rental units (Copa Health), a great community space, a Copa Health Integrated Clinic, a Copa member run café and for sale townhomes (Newtown). The City of Tempe is hopeful it will be a model for low-income housing tax credit programs going forward.
The apartments will reside in a five-story, mixed-use building, with the first floor composed of office space for La Victoria Commons staff, along with Copa Café and Copa Health Clinic.
Designed to cater to the diverse needs of its residents, this project is close in proximity to the light rail. La Victoria Commons not only offers affordable apartments and townhomes, but also exemplifies a holistic approach to community development.
