Big River Apartments, which is comprised of three properties, was recapitalized, consolidated, and rehabilitated in 2016 with funding from the IRC Section 42 Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, USDA Rural Development, and other State Housing sources. Renovations included a major overhaul of the building exteriors, stairs and walkways, new windows, unit interiors, and accessibility and significant energy-efficiency improvements.
