NEWS BRIEFS: One80 Place meets $24 million affordable housing goal

Staff reports | A recent $250,000 grant from Dominion Energy pushed One80 Place, a local nonprofit developing affordable housing for the homeless, over a $24 million goal to build more housing.

The multi-million-dollar project, known as 573 Meeting Street, will be a permanent home for more than 70 formerly homeless individuals, and the second floor will be a brand-new family shelter for women and children. Annually, One80 Place re-houses or prevents homelessness for nearly 1,000 individuals.
