The California Statewide Communities Development Authority (CSCDA) is pleased to announce the issuance of $35,350,000 in tax-exempt and taxable affordable housing bonds for Pasadena Studios in Pasadena, California.
About Pasadena Studios:
Pasadena Studios (the “Project”) is the new construction of 181 affordable housing units by Community Builders Group, LLC (“CBG”). The benefits of the Project to the City of Pasadena include the following:
- 100% of the affordable rental housing units will be rent restricted for low and very low-income residents.
- The Project consists of studio units and two manager units.
