Representatives from the St. Louis County Chamber of Commerce, the City of Duluth, and One Roof Community Housing gathered February 12th to celebrate the proceeding construction of the Plover Place project.

“It’s a two building, 24 unit project-12 units in each one, designed specifically for folks that have had a history of homelessness,” explained Jeff Corey, the executive director of One Roof Community Housing. “Its about trying to create a more cost effective model for humanely housing folks that have not been housed.”

The first building’s modules were craned into place this week and the second building will be craned into place this upcoming week. 

Construction is anticipated to be completed by mid-April and residents will start to move in after.
