Willoughby Corner

A new neighborhood of affordable homes in Lafayette, Willoughby Corner is set to be the largest ‘net-zero ready’ affordable housing projects in the country. The neighborhood, developed by Boulder County Housing Authority (BCHA), proposes 400 permanently affordable homes in a variety of building types, including 30 duplexes, 130 townhomes and 240 apartments as well as significant public amenities. In addition to new affordable workforce housing, the 24-acre neighborhood will include community gardens, a community building, dog park, trails and park space. BCHA anticipates that at least 320 of the 400 homes developed will be restricted at 60% Area Median Income (AMI) and that at least 80 homes will be for-sale to households earning 120% AMI or below. No more than 80 homes will be unrestricted market-rate rental or ownership properties. During the entitlement process, BCHA also contracted Norris Design to create a logo for the neighborhood.
