The Montgomery County Planning Board has approved the site plan for a new six-acre mixed-income community at 4010 Randolph Road. Located on Montgomery County-owned land, the redevelopment is a partnership between AHC Inc. and Habitat for Humanity of Metro Maryland. (Note: In May 2024, the community was named Allium Place.)
The new community will offer nearly 200 affordable homes, including both rental and homeownership opportunities, at various incomes – including deeply affordable units at 30%, 40% and 50% AMI – with 80 hard-to-find three- and four-bedroom apartment homes. The project will also feature an half-acre park with a playground, picnic area, inviting pedestrian walkways, and open lawn areas.
The project includes 27 affordable-for-sale homes, including 24 condominiums and three single-family residences.
The design and development team includes Bonstra Haresign Architects, Parker Rodriguez Landscape Architects, Johnson Bernat Associates (civil engineer), Lerch Early Brewer (zoning attorney), and Kimley-Horn (traffic engineer).
The Planning Board approval enables a groundbreaking in early 2022, with the first new residents expected in 2024.
