BATTLE CREEK, MI (WKZO AM/FM) – The Washington Heights United Methodist Church in Battle Creek is working to build 17 affordable homes in its effort to revitalize a neighborhood on Greenwood Avenue.
Pastor Monique French says the effort has been called the Recover our Neighborhood project and they plan to build two, three, and four-bedroom homes and sell them for between $135,000 and $155,000.
They have funding for the first home through grants and loans and have a person planning to buy it when it’s done this summer.
The church is still working on funding for the other 16 homes and does not have an estimate when they will be complete.
