Grace Apartments offers 53 affordable apartments to individuals and families in east Denver. On Wednesday, September 21st, Grace Apartments celebrated its grand re-opening. The property was built in 1968 and the grand re-opening celebrates the completion of a substantial rehabilitation. Renovations included updated plumbing, ventilation, electrical, and conveyance systems, community spaces, and in-unit cabinetry and flooring.

Grace Apartments has become a referral destination for refugee resettlement efforts of Lutheran Family Services. Many residents participate in Mercy Housing Resident Services, which offer after-school youth programming and adult classes focused on the needs for refugee families.

CHFA was proud to support the preservation of Grace Apartments by awarding federal 4 percent Housing Tax Credits, issuing Private Activity Bonds, and providing $3,870,000 in permanent financing from CHFA’s SMART program. CHFA Housing Tax Credit Manager, Kathryn Grosscup, spoke at the event on behalf of CHFA.
