Mixed-income project could revitalize Delray

The Auburn Group will soon break ground on the 70-acre Villages at Delray, a mixed-income community expected to drastically change the city’s southwest neighborhood, where the median household income is $23,000. The complex, which will go up between Southwest 10th Street and Atlantic Avenue will consist of around 950 apartments, condos and townhouses, as well as a day care center and retail space. Townhouses will be priced from around $185,000 for a two-bedroom to $230,000 for a three-bedroom. The project will set aside more than 400 homes for lower- and middle-income families.
