Working in partnership with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and Peabody Properties Inc., Manchester-based Windover Construction is moving forward with building two veterans’ housing projects. 

The Pleasant Street Apartments will create permanent, supportive housing for veterans in downtown Beverly, according to a company statement. Located adjacent to the Beverly train station, the project will transform an existing property, formerly occupied by Beverly Self-Storage, into 33 new apartments. The completed complex will include on-site counseling and job training for residents.

Once construction is complete, the community will be managed by Peabody Properties. Construction began in December with an expected completion date of June 2013.

The second project, Valley Brook Village, is in Lyons, New Jersey, just outside of Morristown, New Jersey. Approximately 45 miles west of New York City, the 63-unit housing development will support veterans on the grounds of the VA Medical Center. The complex consists of three buildings with both one and two bedroom apartments, situated around a common village green. In addition to residences, the complex will have a community space and other supportive services for residents. The complex will also be managed by Peabody Properties. The project broke ground in August 2012 and is slated for completion in July 2013.
