DHIC and Partners Celebrate Completion of Maplewood Square in Durham

On Monday, June 28th, 2010, DHIC, Inc., Self Help, Durham Community Land Trustees, and our development partners hosted the grand opening of Maplewood Square and Park.

Designed for seniors, Maplewood Square offers 32 affordable, Energy Star-certified apartments with resident community space overlooking the new Maplewood Park.

A dedication and ribbon-cutting ceremony began with Maplewood Square residents offering their welcome followed by guest speakers: Mayor Bill Bell of the City of Durham and officials from Congressman David Price's office and Duke University, as well as some of our financing partners from the North Carolina Housing Finance Agency and Fifth Third Bank.

Special guest Ken Wade, CEO of NeighborWorks America®, offered congratulations to NeighborWorks network members: DHIC, Inc. and Durham Community Land Trustees.

A community-building festival followed the dedication, starting with children from the surrounding neighborhood joining Maplewood Square residents for a cookout. After hamburgers and hot dogs, the children gathered with the residents in the Maplewood Square community room for sing-along songs and portrait drawings. The festivities ended with the neighborhood children christening Maplewood Park with water balloons - a perfect end to the summer day and wonderful celebration.
