East Manawa Housing Development Takes Shape as First Homes Rise!

Progress is now visible at the East Manawa Housing Development, where the first townhomes in Phase I are beginning to come out of the ground along Mallard Street.

This 93-acre development will bring a mix of housing options to Council Bluffs, helping meet demand across a range of income levels while building a new neighborhood from the ground up.

Phase I, in partnership with R. Perry Construction, includes 40 affordable townhomes priced at $175,000. Each home offers either a 2-bedroom or 3-bedroom layout, an attached garage, and a built-in tornado shelter.

The first homes have already been spoken for, but additional opportunities are on the way as future phases move forward. Qualified buyers may also be eligible for up to $35,000 in down payment and closing cost assistance through the City’s program.
