Alamo

San Antonio, TX

CCDFI is renovating the 10,600 sq. ft. Henry Terrell building—a historic structure located two blocks north of the historic Alamo in an area undergoing revitalization by the City of San Antonio.

CCDFI will preserve the property’s historical feel and significance while revitalizing it into two levels of office space over ground floor retail space.

Phoenix, AZ

CCDFI acquired a vacant commercial building in downtown Phoenix where exponential development growth and many new high rises are projected over the next five years.

CCDFI envisions revitalizing this 38,000 sq. ft. building—which once housed the historic Phoenix Merchandise Mart—into a mixed-use facility offering retail space and workforce housing options.

Pine & Pacific

Long Beach, CA

CCDFI is acquiring two parcels in downtown Long Beach to develop two multi-family apartment buildings—one affordable and one market-rate.

The affordable development will be led by two local, minority-controlled nonprofits.

CCDFI will develop the market-rate property consisting of 81 units to support the existing need for housing options in the downtown area.

Saxon

Colombia, SC

CCDFI recently acquired this 2.7-acre site consisting of a 32,000 sq. ft. shopping center divided into six commercial spaces.
