The Tulsa Housing Authority partnered with the City of Tulsa to build what it's calling the city's largest-ever investment in affordable housing.

Phoenix at 36N will be the first phase of a seven-phase redevelopment of the former Comanche Park public housing property.

The development is on the corner of North Peoria Avenue and East 36th Street North.

Ginny Hensley from the Tulsa Housing Authority says phase one of the project will include a four-story, mid-rise building with 100 one and two-bedroom units, over 3,000 square feet of retail commercial space, and a small market.

The project is a part of Tulsa's second Choice Neighborhoods Initiative development.

THA and the City of Tulsa have been awarded $50 million from the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development for the Envision Comanche plan.

Once complete, it will be a 545 mixed-income housing unit with single-family homes, subsidized workforce, and market-rate housing.

“This area of Tulsa hasn’t had market rate apartments maybe ever and so we’re creating that market here and that’s really exciting for us and we think that it’s going to be a catalytic project in terms of spurring additional development along this corridor here at 36 Street," Hensley said. 

Hensley says leasing for Phoenix at 36N should begin summer of next year and will offer Comanche Park residents the first right to return.
