West Virginia Park Apartments, a newly renovated 204-unit affordable housing community in Dallas, TX, has officially re-opened. The preservation project was undertaken by April Housing, Blackstone Real Estate’s affordable housing portfolio company, in partnership with the Dallas Housing Finance Corporation and the City of Dallas.
Originally built in 2004, the community now features modernized one-, two- and three-bedroom townhome-style apartments, along with revamped amenities, including the clubhouse and pool. April Housing completed significant renovations designed to improve the day-to-day resident experience across the property’s common spaces and complete home transformations in 204 residential units, including:
• Renovated kitchens and bathrooms, with new fixtures, energy efficient appliances and lighting throughout
• Replacing all hot water heaters and split systems with modern models, significantly reducing energy consumption
• Modernized community spaces, including two updated playgrounds, pool, and gym facilities
• The installation of rooftop solar, not only offsetting the property’s electricity usage but also providing critical backup power during weather-related grid outages.
West Virginia Park Apartments are conveniently located in southwest Dallas, near popular service amenities like Southwest Center Mall, Target, Kroger, local public library, and popular restaurants all within easy reach. Nearby attractions include the Perot Museum of Nature and Science and the Dallas Zoo.
“Preserving existing affordable housing is a critical part of Dallas’ housing strategy,” said Councilmember Lorie Blair, District 8 of City of Dallas. “Projects like West Virginia Park Apartments allow us to extend affordability, strengthen neighborhoods, and responsibly invest in the housing Dallas residents depend on.”
April Housing is one of the largest owners and preservers of affordable housing in the US. Since 2024, the company has successfully completed the preservation of more than 3,000 affordable homes across the country. Through the preservation program, Blackstone Real Estate has invested more than $255 mil for upgrades and improvements for residents at these properties. Comprehensive renovations are either completed or well underway, including accessibility and energy efficiency improvements that directly benefit residents.
April Housing is managing a portfolio of more than 13,000 units across Texas, focused on providing best-in-class housing and management practices to its residents. Since 2024, the company has preserved the affordability of 2,100 units and invested over $200 million in capital expenditures to support the re-syndication communities in Texas. April Housing is actively pursuing additional re-syndication opportunities across its portfolio and is on track to become the largest preserver of affordable housing.
