From Vacant to Vibrant.

Through our Single-Family Homes Program, Martin Luther King Economic Development Corp. is transforming empty properties into quality homes for families right here in our community. What was once overlooked is now being rebuilt with purpose, restoring pride, creating stability, and opening the door to homeownership.

This is how we revitalize neighborhoods: One Home At A Time.

New Homes. New Opportunities.

Lamar Franklin Lofts is more than a new apartment development—it’s a fresh start, a place to grow, and a chance to be part of something bigger. Featuring 55 affordable units, this project is built to expand access to quality housing while strengthening the heart of our community.

Thoughtfully designed and rooted in purpose, these homes represent the future of living on MLK Drive.

Welcome to a new chapter. Welcome to Lamar Franklin Lofts.

We’re proud to invest in neighborhoods, create spaces that matter, and build a stronger future right here in our city. This is more than development… it’s a commitment to the people, the culture, and the legacy of Milwaukee.

Welcome to MLK EDC. Let’s build something great together!
