The Homewood project is an effort to contribute<br />

to the new growth in Homewood. <strong>KBK</strong> <strong>Enterprises</strong><br />

has brought mixed-income housing to the Hill<br />

District, Garfield, and Larimer. This project is <strong>KBK</strong><br />

<strong>Enterprises</strong>’ first development in the Homewood<br />

neighborhood. The new housing of 58 units is<br />

built on and surrounding the site of the former<br />

Kelly Street High Rise apartment building and is<br />

bordered by Hamilton Avenue and Kelly Street,<br />

between North Murtland Avenue and North Lang<br />

Avenue. Kelly Hamilton is also a mixed-income<br />

community consisting of 42 affordable 16 market<br />

rate units with one, two, and three bedrooms<br />

This new community will also include a 2,530<br />

sq. ft. resident center that includes a computer<br />

lab and management office. The Kelly Hamilton<br />

team actively engaged with locals of Pittsburgh<br />

who qualify as low and very-low income individuals<br />

to create Section 3 opportunities. The <strong>KBK</strong><br />

Foundation succeeded in meeting or exceeding<br />

the Housing Authority’s Section 3 and M/WBE<br />

goals for the project by approximately 26 percent.<br />

Homewood has long experienced the impact of<br />

prolonged decline and disinvestment. Recently,<br />

community groups in Homewood have constructed<br />

a development plan that involves dissecting<br />

the neighborhood into “clusters”. Each “cluster”<br />

is intended to serve a directed purpose (i.e. housing,<br />

business district/retail improvement, greenspace)<br />

to improve the neighborhood. <strong>KBK</strong> <strong>Enterprises</strong><br />

is excited to see and be a part of the future<br />

of Homewood.<br />
