A new Boston development is prioritizing first-generation home buyers. It could help close the racial wealth gap.
Briefly

The Brookley Flats housing development, opening in 2025, is Boston's first affordable homeownership community targeting first-generation home buyers to address the racial wealth gap.
Sheila Dillon, Boston's chief of housing, emphasized the importance of intentional efforts to correct past injustices in homeownership access for families.
With 45 units geared towards residents making no more than the area median income, the project especially supports families whose parents are not homeowners.
The $26.4 million Brookley Flats project aims to close the racial wealth gap by making it easier for Black and Latino residents to buy homes.
