www.GoodMorningGwinnett.com The old public housing units in Lawrenceville and Buford, some that date to the 1950s, are on their way out.


And Deborah Ingle, for one, won’t miss them.

Ingle, who’s lived in public housing in Lawrenceville for six years, is thankful for the home she has and the community of which she’s a part. But the floor plan in her unit isn’t inviting, she said, and the kitchen doesn’t have a dishwasher – something she misses sorely.

“I’m going to have a brand-new everything,” said Ingle, 73. “It’s like buying a brand-new house, which I have never done. How blessed can you get?”

Efforts are being made across the state to upgrade existing public housing by renovating or building new homes and, in some cases, surrounding them with mixed-income communities. With oversight from housing authorities, private developers are building many of them with the help of tax breaks or other incentives.
