Bluestone Town Center Update!

As we progress in this exciting process of developing more housing in Harrisonburg, we are excited to share our next update!  During the week of April 15th, we are anticipating doing our ground boring tests for our senior and multi-family locations!

What is ground boring?

Ground boring is the process of using drills to collect soil samples so that the construction team understands the type of soil in a given space (e.g., hard or soft soil). This helps to set a foundation for construction plans!

 

Please stay tuned for more Blue Stone Town Center Updates via our Facebook Page or our email list!

Waitlist Closing

The Harrisonburg Redevelopment and Housing Authority will close its waiting lists and stop taking online applications for its Housing Choice Voucher (rental assistance), Franklin Heights, Lineweaver Annex, and Commerce Village housing programs effective Friday, September 6, 2024.
