A developer is once again attempting to build hundreds of affordable housing units for low-income renters just outside Prospect — a plan that so enraged residents of the wealthy suburban city that they cobbled together $230,000 in an effort to thwart it when first proposed five years ago.
The latest plan for Prospect Cove calls for a three-story complex with 178 one- and two-bedroom units. It’s scaled down slightly from the 2017 plan of 198 units and four stories.
A developer’s plan to build "affordable" apartments in the wealthy Louisville suburb of Prospect was given the green light by Metro Council Thursday night, five years after the council rejected the original version of the plan.
