Elevate at Aurora multifamily project receives funding, Colorado
KeyBank recently contributed $36.3 million to developer Columbia Ventures for the construction of Elevate at Aurora, a new 137-unit multifamily project in Aurora, Colorado.
Elevate at Aurora will contain low-income studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom configurations. These are for households earning 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, and 70% of the area median income (AMI). The project will also include constructing a new community service facility that will serve as the Aurora location for CrossPurpose, a nonprofit provider of workforce development services, and Living Hope Community Church, a bilingual church that offers before and after school programming.
