This work represents an important opportunity to thoughtfully transform our properties, expand access to quality affordable and attainable housing and strengthen the communities we serve. We also know meaningful development requires transparency, collaboration and trust. This page is designed to keep residents, partners and the broader Charleston community informed as plans move forward, milestones are reached and decisions are made. At CHA, we believe this work is about more than building homes. It is about creating the foundation for stronger families, greater opportunity and lasting human transformation.

The Charleston Housing Authority is committed to minimizing disruption to residents through a build first, phased redevelopment approach. This means new housing will be constructed in phases before existing homes are redeveloped. Residents will be able to move into newly built homes as they become available, allowing redevelopment to progress in stages. This approach is designed to help residents remain within their community throughout the process and return to the redeveloped community. CHA will keep residents informed about each phase and provide updates as plans move forward.
