Our Project

At MHC, we are strong believers in community. The MHC community will feature outdoor spaces designed to bring people together, including a gazebo, a BBQ grill, and designated garden areas. These amenities will provide a welcoming environment for relaxation, socialization, and shared activities.

The community center will serve as a vibrant hub, hosting a variety of programs that cater to diverse interests across the neighborhood. Proposed activities include, but are not limited to, exercise classes, dance lessons, cooking classes, movie nights, dances, and holiday parties. These events aim to foster connection, wellness, and fun among residents.

In addition to serving MHC residents, the community will welcome individuals from surrounding neighborhoods to participate in these activities, encouraging a spirit of inclusivity and broader community engagement.

MHC is targeting Durham, NC for our first community. The community will be convenient to neighborhood grocery stores, restaurants, and shopping. It will also be close to public transportation.

Residents will be required to bring their own disability related supports. Midtown Housing Coalition will not provide any individual specific supports that are not related to the community center.
