Project description:

Paradigm Central Housing is developing a 50 unit multifamily community delivering family-focused affordable housing along University Avenue in Saint Paul. This transit-oriented infill project will transform an underutilized site into a high-quality, sustainable residential community.

Located steps from the Metro Transit Green Line, the development offers direct access to both downtown Saint Paul and Minneapolis—connecting residents to jobs, schools, and essential services.

Designed with families in mind, the community will feature 2-, 3-, and 4-bedroom apartment homes that support multigenerational living—an increasingly critical need in today’s housing market.

Key Highlights

50 units of affordable multifamily housing
Family-focused unit mix (2-, 3-, and 4-bedroom homes)
Transit-oriented location in a high-demand corridor
Sustainable design to support long-term affordability and resident well-being

This development expands access to much-needed family-sized housing while helping to reduce displacement, strengthen neighborhood continuity, and promote long-term community stability.
