MassHousing provided a total of $32.8 million in affordable housing financing to the Madison Park Development Corp. (MPDC) for the rehabilitation of the Haynes House, a 131-unit multifamily community in Boston’s Roxbury neighborhood.

Located at 735 Shawmut Ave., Haynes House has 26 one-bedroom and 105 two-bedroom apartments.
