Newport’s north end flourishes as outdated housing is revitalized for contemporary living.

Newport’s Park Holm neighborhood transforms neglected, distressed navy housing into a vibrant residential community. This large, multi-phase initiative replaces outdated structures with thoughtfully designed two- and three-story homes, featuring private entrances, modern amenities, and flexible layouts that serve diverse residents from individuals to families, and foster both independence and dignity.
Beyond housing, Park Holm has energized the formerly disenfranchised north end of Newport. This area now attracts local events like farmers markets and movie nights—community gatherings unprecedented in this part of town prior to development. This broader impact demonstrates how thoughtful affordable housing design can rejuvenate an entire district.
