Flat 9 at Whittier. The Occupancy Specialist will assist with property management tasks, including HUD Section 8 and LIHTC certifications. The first two phases of The Flat 9 at Whittier redevelopment was a collaboration between POAH, Madison Park Development Corporation and the Boston Housing Authority to redevelop the Whittier Street Apartments site in the Roxbury neighborhood of Boston. Originally built in the early 1950s, the Whittier Apartments were home to 200 public housing families. Phase three, The Amp at Flat 9, is a collaboration with the Boston Housing Authority that added market rate rentals to the redevelopment. Building on its rich heritage of this vibrant neighborhood, the award-winning Flat 9 at Whittier is an attractive, sustainable rental and homeownership community at the corner of Tremont, Ruggles and Whittier Streets. The development creates a livable site with outdoor play spaces, a mix of building types to accommodate diverse family needs, and new streets to re-integrate the site into the broader neighborhood. In December 2016, HUD awarded a $30 million Choice grant to support the housing development, resident support services and the surrounding neighborhood.
