Representatives from the Colorado Housing Finance Authority, Pinkard Construction, and RBC Capital Markets will also attend to celebrate the success of this renovation.
This renovation project is a major milestone for Longmont’s affordable housing initiatives.
Village on Main, which has been owned by the Longmont Housing Authority since 2005, offers 72 apartments for seniors aged 62 and older.
The upgrades not only improve the quality of life for residents but also help maintain this valuable property as a long-term affordable housing option.
Major Renovations Enhance Affordable Housing for Seniors
The $8.5 million renovation project included both interior and exterior upgrades to Village on Main.
New windows, roofing, and mechanical systems were installed, alongside a new 162 KW solar system that will provide renewable energy for the building.
These changes help improve the building’s energy efficiency and reduce long-term operating costs.
Inside, the apartments and common areas received significant improvements. Floors, countertops, cabinets, fixtures, and appliances were all updated to provide modern, comfortable living spaces for seniors.
These upgrades ensure that the facility continues to serve the needs of the community for many years to come.

Additional funding sources included Solar Tax Credits and Renewable Power Purchase Program (RPPP) funds from Longmont Power and Communications.
These collaborative efforts reflect the strong commitment of local organizations to preserve and expand affordable housing in Longmont, particularly for the city’s senior resid
