Portland Housing Authority pipeline and city partnership

Portland

Summary

PHA houses 5,000+ residents with 1,300+ affordable units and 2,100 vouchers, and has one of Maine's largest affordable pipelines — including the Franklin Towers rehab where no tenant moves offsite. PHA says stronger city partnership means more housing preserved and built.
