The Newton Family Apartments will transform the former site of the Canton Inn into a new mixed-income residential community serving families in Canton’s southeast neighborhoods. Developed jointly by Canton for All People and The Woda Cooper Companies, this project replaces a long-blighted property with high-quality, affordable housing that strengthens the surrounding neighborhood and expands access to stable homes.
The development will provide modern, energy-efficient apartments designed for working families, with a focus on long-term affordability and resident stability. Located within walking distance of schools, food access, and community services, the Newton Family Apartments will connect residents to essential neighborhood resources while contributing to the revitalization of a key corridor.
By redeveloping a former motel site into permanent housing, the project addresses housing insecurity, removes a longstanding source of blight, and anchors broader neighborhood investment efforts. The Newton Family Apartments reflect a shared commitment by Canton for All People and Woda Cooper to create high-quality housing that supports families, strengthens neighborhoods, and promotes long-term community vitality.
