Homeowner's Rehab- Auburn Court

Homeowner’s Rehab, Inc. (HRI) is a non-profit founded in 1972, whose main goal is the development of affordable housing in the city of Cambridge.  HRI has shifted its focus from homeownership to include rental properties as a means to create new opportunities for households that cannot compete in Cambridge’s housing market. HRI’s continuing mission is to provide safe, affordable, decent, and sustainable housing.

Auburn Court is a development consisting of 137 units of mixed-income housing in Cambridgeport. The development was the culmination of over 15 years of community activism to develop affordable housing at University Park. HRI developed Auburn Court in two phases and created a mixed-income development with low, moderate, and market-rate families. All donated artwork now hangs in the community rooms, main lobbies, and on each floor’s elevator lobby.
