Summary
The state is pouring $18.6 million in tax credits into six Gateway Cities—Fall River, Lawrence, Lowell, Pittsfield, Taunton, and Worcester—to spur the construction of 662 new homes, reviving downtowns by repurposing old mills and underused buildings. Governor Healey emphasized this initiative as a tool to boost affordability and community growth, while Lt. Governor Driscoll announced awards live in Fall River’s historic Durfee Block. These Gateway Cities, defined by lower incomes and fewer college grads, are key to the state’s broader housing strategy, which has already funded 52 projects creating over 3,400 homes across 16 cities.
