Augusta housing project could put 25 energy-efficient rental homes behind Hodgkins site

KENNEBEC JOURNAL • April 2, 2021

An Augusta Housing Authority proposal inspired by the work of University of Maine at Augusta architecture students could bring as many as 25 energy efficient — and affordable — rental homes for people age 55 and older to the city. Proponents say the proposal to build the homes on what are now athletic fields behind the former Hodgkins middle school could serve as a model for similar affordable housing projects across the state.
