Capitol Campus at the Lusk District
The city currently owns and manages over 300 housing units throughout the city. A third (110) of those are between Capitol Blvd. and Lusk Street. These units – referred to collectively as Capitol Campus – provide some of our community’s most affordable housing. Because these units are deteriorating, the city is proactively planning to redevelop the property and ensure the current tenants remain stably housed.
The City of Boise has identified an opportunity to redevelop this location, in partnership with Boise State University, who owns and manages the parking lot adjacent to the city-owned parcels. The joint vision is to provide housing that incorporates the unique characteristics of the Lusk District and offers homes at a variety of price-points, including deeply affordable units.
