The installation of new infrastructure continues for new housing in the Creighton Court community, 2101 Creighton Road. One of the revitalization goals of Richmond Redevelopment and Housing Authority for the redevelopment of the Creighton Court community is to provide more affordable housing options by increasing density and, build more units than what is currently there now. Currently, there are 504 units in Creighton Court. The approved Master Plan is designed for an increase of 196 mixed-income units, for a total of 700 units on the site.
