The Bergen Circle affordable housing complex in Springfield, Massachusetts, has undergone a $22 million renovation, bringing significant improvements to the once-troubled complex. Residents now have new kitchens and bathrooms, replaced windows, and upgraded mechanical systems. The project was funded by MassHousing and spearheaded by the Michaels Organization, which took ownership of the property in 2021. Despite ongoing issues with pests and maintenance, tenants have expressed appreciation for the transformation, noting improvements in living conditions and responsiveness from management. The renovation included a complete rehab of the main seven-story building and seven two-story townhomes, encompassing 201 apartments. The complex now features security cameras, a fenced-in playground, and a mix of units subsidized by federal housing vouchers and rented at market rates.
