Lincoln Avenue Communities Hosts Grand Opening Ceremony for Affordable Housing Complex in Lac Du Flambeau

LAC DU FLAMBEAU, Wis., May 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Lincoln Avenue Communities (LAC), a mission-driven acquirer and developer of affordable housing, hosted a grand opening ceremony this week for Forest Edge Apartments, a 40-unit, townhouse-style affordable housing development in Lac du Flambeau.

"We are proud to partner with Cinnaire Solutions and Wisconsin Management Company to bring high-quality, affordable housing to the heart of the Wisconsin Northwoods," said Kevin McDonell, LAC Vice President and Regional Project Partner. "Forest Edge Apartments will support the local economy by giving workers and families a place to call home."

Forest Edge Apartments features a mix of two- and three-bedroom homes with energy-efficient appliances, large closets, and complimentary internet packages for residents. The majority of units will be leased to those earning between 30 and 60% of the area median income (AMI), with 8 units reserved for residents with disabilities via Section 811 Housing Vouchers. Communal amenities include a fitness center, community room, business and meeting center, and a parcel room for package delivery. A significant portion of the property's energy consumption will be offset by solar panels installed on each building.

The development was made possible through a partnership between LAC, Cinnaire Solutions, Quasar Development Group, and Wisconsin Management Company (WMC), with financing assistance from the Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority (WHEDA), the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago, the Wisconsin Department of Administration, Cinnaire Lending, the Couillard Solar Foundation, Focus on Energy, and an Energy Innovation Grant.
