Multi-family development planned in Grafton
MSP Development Company Inc. plans to build a 192-unit, multi-family residential development on a 9.5-acre site south of the Pick ‘n Save store in Grafton, and north of Oak Street. The plans call for three buildings with 72 apartments, a 29-unit, 31-unit and 12-unit building. MSP is applying for tax credits for the project through the Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority (WHEDA) Section 42 program for 60 of the 72 apartment units. Those units would be offered at lower rents to residents that meet the program’s income limit requirement. The apartments in the 12-unit building would be offered at market rates. In addition, the project would include a three-wing, 120-unit senior living campus with a 36-unit memory care wing, a 36-unit assisted living wing and a 48-unit independent living wing.
