This project consisted of the development of affordable housing units in an area bounded by Bowman Avenue, Exchange, 13th Street, and 15th Avenue in East St. Louis, Illinois. The development was initiated to stem the tide of emigration from the City that was occurring at a very fast pace. The City through creative financing and partnership with private sectors, and the banking industry initiated a scheme to demolish and redevelop abandoned buildings within certain depressed subdivisions in the City.
AFRAM Corporation was hired as a subconsultant to assist in the design and project management of the 84 housing units in East St. Louis Illinois. AFRAM's scope of services included but not limited to the design of the internal roads, surrounding streets, water, site drainage, lighting and cost estimating.
During the construction phase, AFRAM was involved in the oversight inspection. We also reviewed payment applications and coordinated the utility relocation with the various utility companies.
