Sunnybrook Housing Development Opens in Alton, Ill.
Sunnybrook, a 40-unit housing development in Alton, Ill., recently held its ribbon-cutting ceremony and officially opened.
In addition to the housing units, the complex features a 2,000-square-foot community building, an acre of greenspace, a playground and a basketball court.
All but one unit is currently occupied, and LHDC Executive Director Karlee Macer called the development “an investment in people [and] in families.”
