State of Maryland Honors MHP with Excellence in Affordable Housing Preservation Award

The Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) recently presented MHP its Excellence in Affordable Housing Preservation Award in recognition of the nonprofit developer’s work on the Residences at Forest Glen. DHCD Secretary Jake Day presented the award to MHP President Robert A. Goldman during the Maryland Affordable Housing Coalition’s (MAHC) annual Secretary’s Breakfast and awards ceremony. The Multifamily awards highlight some of the best projects in Maryland that have received DHCD support. 

The Residences at Forest Glen, a ground up development of 189 units in Silver Spring, is one of the largest affordable housing projects in Montgomery County. Located near the I-495 Capital Beltway, the Forest Glen Metro station, and many bus routes, this $100 million multifamily development is a transit-friendly community with amenities such as a community room, fitness center, multiple courtyards, underground parking, landscaped green space, a community garden, and higher-trim design features such as floor to ceiling windows.
