Fayetteville Lands Historic $25M Grant | Fayetteville News

Fayetteville just snagged a $25.1 million federal grant—making it the first city in eastern North Carolina to win a Choice Neighborhoods Implementation Grant—and it’s set to spark a $531 million transformation of the Murchison Road corridor. The funds will demolish aging public housing at Murchison Townhouses and Elliott Circle near Fayetteville State University, replacing them with 300+ new mixed-income apartments, upgraded infrastructure, and revitalized public spaces—all while giving eligible residents a chance to return to improved homes. After narrowly missing out in 2024, the city’s persistence paid off, positioning Fayetteville as a trailblazer in NC’s urban renewal efforts, backed by local agencies and experienced partners ready to turn vision into reality.
