Vicksburg Commons

In partnership with CommonBond Communities, the largest nonprofit affordable housing provider in the Upper Midwest, IOCP spurred the development of an affordable 50-unit townhome neighborhood in Plymouth. CommonBond Communities developed the property and manages it, and IOCP provides on-site supportive services for families and children. Four units are designated for families who have experienced long-term homelessness.

Funders of the $9.16 million Vicksburg Commons project include:

Minnesota Housing
Plymouth Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Hennepin County
The Metropolitan Council
IOCP
Local businesses

“Funds to secure the land for Vicksburg Commons came from this community’s support of the Sleep Out. This community has stepped up to the challenge of affordable housing!“—Jim Ramstad
