Wheatley Housing revitalization to East San Antonio

SAN ANTONIO – The San Antonio Housing Authority (SAHA) has started the demolition of the Wheatley Courts housing project at 906 N. Mittman St. on the city’s East Side.

The property is being demolished to make room for a new 417-unit, mixed-income community.

This complex will be a major component of the Wheatley Transformation Plan that has been designed to bring quality housing, education, employment, health care and economic development opportunities to the East Side.

SAHA received nearly $30 million in December 2012 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the Wheatley revitalization.
