Sterling Construction Breaks Ground on Critical Project

MISHAWAKA, IN - Sterling Construction is building a brand new affordable housing project, East Village at Avondale. This development, in Indianapolis, Indiana, is a part of an overall 100 acre re-development known as Avondale Meadows.

East Village at Avondale will consist of 248 apartment homes and a resident clubhouse, located along 38th Street and Meadows Drive, an area the City of Indianapolis has been working to re-develop for a number of years. These homes will consist of 38 one-bedroom homes, 130 two-bedroom homes, and 80 three-bedroom homes.

The new community will include numerous amenities, such as: a clubhouse offering a computer center with high-speed connectivity and printer, fitness center, swimming pool, picnic area with barbeque grilling capabilities, gazebo, designated gardening areas for residents and walking trails.

All homes will feature a fully-equipped kitchen with stove, garbage disposal, refrigerator, dishwasher and pantry. Full-size washer and dryer will also be located in every home, along with walk-in closets and external individual attached storages.

East Village at Avondale will be constructed with energy efficiency in mind. All apartment homes will be constructed with energy rated exterior doors and windows and feature Energy Star Rated Equipment such as a programmable thermostat, range hood fan, a water conservation showerhead, kitchen faucet, and lavatory faucet.  In the construction of every home, there will be an Energy Star Certified Building Envelope and each home will be tested through the Home Energy Rating System (HERS). 

The apartment homes are built as part of the Section 42 Tax Credit Program, providing a high quality housing alternative with households of lower to medium income levels.  In a letter from Mayor Gregory A. Ballard, Mayor of Indianapolis, he states East Village at Avondale will provide quality affordable housing for a large sector of families between 30% and 60% of the Area Median Income level as well as provide unrestricted market units. In addition, Mayor Ballard indicated in a separate letter that the redevelopment of the Meadows area is critical to the preservation and improvement of this community.
