Co-developers HVAF of Indiana and Woda Cooper Companies, Inc. announced they hosted a ceremonial groundbreaking at Proctor Place for the new 61-unit, high-quality affordable housing community supported with housing tax credits allocated by the Indiana Housing & Community Development Authority (IHCDA), with 15 units set aside for homeless veterans. The $12.6 million Proctor Place is being constructed at 240 N. Warman Ave. on the Central Greens campus, just west of downtown Indianapolis, Woda said. 

Woda’s announcement said Proctor Place is named in honor of Sgt. Joseph Eugene “Joey” Proctor, a member of the Indiana Army National Guard, who was killed in action during combat operations in Iraq in 2006 and awarded the Silver Star for heroism and conspicuous gallantry. Proctor’s parents were on hand for the groundbreaking.
