History

The Muncie Housing Authority
was established in 1938. It began construction of its first public
housing units and was completed in 1941. Munsyanna homes consisted
of 279 units which began serving low income individuals and families.

In 1954, the Muncie Housing
Authority constructed Parkview Apartments. This development eventually
became 64 units and has been serving the Muncie community ever since.
In 1981, the agency then
took on an ambitious project of developing three housing developments.
The housing authority created Earthstone Terrace and Southern Pines
which was a combined unit count of 199 units for families. Gillespie
Towers which was designated for the elderly and the disabled and it
consisted of 98 units.
The agency then applied
for a Hope VI grant and was awarded 12.3 million dollars to revitalize
Munsyanna homes. That created the development known as Millennium
Place which consists of tax credit and public housing units.
Currently, the agencies
working on the redevelopment of Parkview Apartments and has applied
for tax credits in other financing for a development called Millennium
Place West. We serve over 1,200 families at any given point of time.
We have 20 full time employees and several employees from temporary
agencies.
