Housing Vermont, Champlain Housing Trust, and Cathedral Square were joined by community members, including Governor Peter Shumlin, to celebrate a groundbreaking at Harrington Village yesterday afternoon. The new development will create 82 new homes in the heart of Shelburne Village, including over 40 apartments for families, 36 apartments for seniors, and four affordable homes. Construction is scheduled to begin this summer, with some of the units ready for occupancy as early as summer 2014.
