Wamego hospital converted to apartments, open house set
WAMEGO (KSNT) - A local development company is celebrating the ribbon-cutting of a new apartment complex in Wamego next month.
Frontier Development Group (FDG) announced in a press release the ceremony will take place at 3 p.m. on Aug. 7 at 512 Spruce Street. Attendees will be able to see inside the renovated space which used to make up the Wamego hospital.
The apartments contain 10 fully renovated living spaces to help fill the need for housing in the community. Funds for the project were made possible due to contributions from Kansas Housing Investor Tax Credits, a moderate-income housing grant, state historic tax credits, commerce SHOVL funds and developer equity.
FDG said remarks will be made at the ribbon-cutting ceremony by representatives from the Kansas Housing Resources Corporation and the Kansas Department of Commerce.
