Upon the scheduled 2007 completion, the property will feature a total of 571 apartment and condominium units, 312 of which will be reserved as affordable housing and housing for residents earning 60% or less of the area median income. Six of the new units will be designed to meet the Americans with Disabilities Act accessibility requirements.

Woodbury Park currently consists of seven three- and four-story structures, which will be preserved in the multi-million-dollar project for their historic integrity. The new portion of the residential community, which will be designated Woodbury North, will be built upon what is now a surface parking lot on the AHC-owned 10.5-acre property. Woodbury North will feature two new buildings at a maximum nine-stories--housing apartment units in one, and the 99 market-rate condominiums in the other--as well as an underground parking garage. The garage, however, is not designed to accommodate parking for all, as one of the main focal points of the development is to create a pedestrian-friendly environment centered on the easily accessible public transportation surrounding the apartment complex. The property's function does not stop there. The new segment of Woodbury Park will become home to AHC's corporate offices, as well as a new community center and a convenience store.
