Many friends, supporters and residents of Van Cleve Commons, a new development in the SE Como Minneapolis neighborhood, came together in early September to celebrate the project’s completion.
The grand opening celebration was held outdoors, as a block party, on a new street that connects the two award winning sister builidings, developed by PPL and Cabrini Partnership as part of a long-term project begun in 2004 to reintegrate the former Bunge grain elevator into the residential community.
It brought online 90 new affordable housing units, 20 of which house formerly homeless individuals served by Cabrini
PPL manages the propertiies and makes self-sufficiency services and youth programming available to the remaining resisdents.
