Overview
The Madison on North Market is a newly constructed, 79,300-square-foot affordable housing community in Frederick, Maryland, developed by New Harbor Development and SCG Development. Offering 60 units funded through Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC), the project meets National Green Building Standards and Energy Star Multifamily High-Rise Standards, and is designed as Zero Energy Ready Homes.
