🏗️ Another exciting milestone at Kollen Park Apartments!

This week, the building reached a major framing milestone as crews completed the third-level walls and set the roof trusses, giving the structure its full shape for the first time.

Additional progress included:
✔️ Completion of the window mockup
✔️ Window delivery to the site
✔️ Storefront measurements and material orders
✔️ Continued stair installation
✔️ Construction of the electrical meter bank for permanent power

With each beam, window, and wall, Kollen Park Apartments moves one step closer to becoming home for individuals and families in Holland.

We're grateful for the hard work of everyone helping bring this community to life and look forward to sharing more progress in the weeks ahead.

What makes a neighborhood feel like home?

Recently, residents from Midtown Village Apartments joined 3Sixty for a walking tour of Holland's Eastcore neighborhood, where they explored murals, learned about the artists behind them, and discovered the stories woven into the community's public spaces.

Experiences like these help strengthen connections—not only to one another, but to the neighborhoods we call home. Through art, history, and shared experiences, residents had the opportunity to engage with the creativity and culture that make Holland unique.

At Dwelling Place, we believe thriving communities are built through connection, belonging, and opportunities to experience the places around us.

Thank you to 3Sixty for helping bring Eastcore's stories to life for our residents.

What an incredible day in Holland.

Thank you to everyone who joined us yesterday for one of our Pre-Leasing Information Sessions for the future Hope and Kollen Park Apartments. It was exciting to gather with community members, share project updates, answer questions, and celebrate the progress being made toward creating more affordable housing opportunities in Holland.

We're especially grateful to our partners at Community Action House and the Little River Band of Ottawa Indians for sharing information and resources with attendees. We also want to recognize Hope Church, whose generosity in donating the land for Hope Apartments helped make this vision possible and whose continued partnership has been instrumental throughout this journey.

Projects like Hope and Kollen Park Apartments are possible because of strong partnerships, shared commitment, and a belief that everyone deserves a place to call home.

Thank you to all who attended—we look forward to continuing this journey together.

Exciting progress in Holland!

Pre-leasing is now underway for Hope Apartments and Kollen Park Apartments, two developments that will bring 52 new affordable homes to the Holland community. These homes represent more than new housing—they represent opportunity, stability, and a shared commitment to creating a community where more people can thrive.

This project would not be possible without the collaboration of Community Action House Hope Church, the Little River Band of Ottawa Indians, the City of Holland, and many others who have worked together to expand housing opportunities for local residents.

Thank you to everyone who has helped bring this vision to life. We're excited to continue moving closer to welcoming future residents home.

What does home mean to you?

For some, it's a front porch. For others, it's a neighborhood filled with familiar faces. For many, it's the opportunity to build a future.

As we celebrate National Homeownership Month, we're recognizing the role housing plays in creating stability, connection, and opportunity.

At Dwelling Place, we're committed to expanding access to housing options that help people thrive—because everyone deserves a place to call home.
