The development is bringing much needed senior housing to the City of Boone as evidence by the support of both city officials and staff through local contributions to the development.

LGG assisted Full Circle Communities in its Fifteenth Street Apartments submission that landed $504,179 in tax credits. The Fifteenth Street Apartments development is an adaptive reuse effort that will result in 36-units of affordable housing and will contain twenty-one 1-bedroom and fifteen 2-bedroom units in Dubuque, Iowa. The project will serve persons with a disability and veterans.  The area is rich in amenities, services, and recreation – a perfect fit for an apartment community which is geared towards keeping the tenants engaged and connected to services in an accessible area.
