All Modular Units have been installed for Phase 1
Vertical construction of 68 affordable housing units is well under way and all of the modular units are in place. Related will be working on the rest of Phase 1 through Winter and we're hoping to welcome our first tenants in October 2024. Phase 1 includes 12 Studios, 12 one-bedrooms, 23 three-bedrooms, and 21 four-bedrooms. Phase 2 financing closed in August 2023, so expect to see Phase 2 start to take shape in Spring of 2024.

South Lake Tahoe Mayor Devin Middlebrook said in a news release, “This marks a significant step forward for this innovative project. The city of South Lake Tahoe is aware of the urgent need for workforce housing. There is still plenty to do, but I am incredibly happy with what we’ve accomplished thus far through this public-private partnership.”
Earlier this year, the California Department of Housing and Community Development awarded the Sugar Pine Village project $19.6 million as part of its Multifamily Housing Program, which assists with new construction, rehabilitation, and preservation of permanent and transitional rental housing for lower-income households. Sugar Pine Village will deliver much-needed affordable, workforce housing to residents earning 30-60% of El Dorado County Area Median Income and is the largest affordable multi-family housing project in South Lake Tahoe to-date.
