The Austin Housing Finance Corporation, The Vecino Group, and Caritas of Austin are collaborating on a $53 million affordable housing project called The Libertad Austin. Located at 900 Gardner Road, the development will offer 198 units across three four-story buildings with 50 one, 95 two, and 44 three-bedroom floor plans ranging from 653 to 1,052 square feet. Most of the apartments will be reserved for families who are at or below 30 to 60 percent of the median family income, while the remaining 50 will be for people who are experiencing homelessness. The Libertad Austin project is part of a larger effort to create more affordable housing options for the Austin community.
