Charlottesville Tomorrow reports on the latest at Crescent Halls: Residents of the public housing complex Crescent Halls have chosen cherry wood floors, espresso-colored cabinets and white countertops for their future apartments.
The vote on color scheme occurred Tuesday (January 28th) as Cornelius Griggs, founder of GMA Construction, prepares to begin renovations on the apartment complex in April. The arrival of construction crews and equipment will be the necessary evidence for many residents that the long-promised goal of public housing redevelopment has finally begun.
