Federal housing officials at event for affordable workforce housing project in Hagerstown

Several federal housing officials were in Hagerstown on Wednesday for the “unveiling” of Kilpatrick Woods, a development in the city’s West End being created with manufactured housing and touted as a new concept for affordable workforce housing. What’s new about the concept for Kilpatrick Woods is creating a community with manufactured housing in which the homebuyer also will own the land underneath the home and have access to affordable mortgage programs, developer and EquityPlus LLC Partner Tom Heinemann said in an interview after the ceremony.
