It was five years ago, in July 2019, that leaders of a new nonprofit in Albany were telling me about their plans for Hub City Village. Now they’re about to celebrate reaching their goal.

Hub City Village isn’t finished yet, but it is getting close.
Every once in a while, bike rides around Albany take me past 241 Waverly Drive S.E., where the Creating Housing Coalition is building 27 “tiny houses” in a compound it calls Hub City Village.
Construction of Hub City Village continues apace at 241 Waverly Drive S.E., and people hoping to live there there may be interested in what the Albany Community Development Commission was told last month.
Now that construction on Hub City Village has started, when will this planned unit development of 27 small houses in Albany be ready for otherwise homeless people to move in?
Creating Housing Coalition has let people know where it intends to build Hub City Village, its proposed community of about two dozen tiny houses for people who otherwise would likely be homeless.
Why the activity? It’s for a housing project
In a large open area between Southeast Waverly Drive and Davidson Street in Albany, crews have been preparing the ground for what developers hope will become a community of small houses.
