The Minnesota Housing Commission recently approved a $2-million, 950-thousand Workforce Housing Development grant to the City of Wabasha for a 50-unit market-rate apartment building in downtown Wabasha.
The site is located at the intersection of Alleghany Avenue and Second Street, steps away from Wabasha’s historic Main Street and the many amenities of downtown including the Mississippi River, public library, and many local businesses, including the National Eagle Center.
It is part of a larger strategy begun by the Wabasha Port Authority and the Wabasha Area Team for Community Housing (WATCH) two years ago to look at ways to create more housing in Wabasha.
The apartment building will be a four-story building, with studios, one, two, and three-bedroom units, an exercise room, a community room, and 38 underground parking stalls. Â
The $12.33 million project will be under construction next year, with apartments expected to begin leasing at the end of 2026.
