CORRECTION: Jan. 25
An earlier version of this article incorrectly stated that nonprofit developer The Community Builders, Inc., co-founded the original Charlesview Residences. In fact, while The Community Builders is co-developing the new relocated Charlesview Residences, it was not involved in establishing the original housing complex.
