Garden City officially broke ground on a new housing development Wednesday morning, the first of what may be several such developments over the next decade designed to meet workforce housing needs. Hunters Glen is a multi-phase development located on 40 acres north of Valley View Cemetery in Garden City. Dirt work has already begun on Phase I of the project, which will include 86 two- and three-bedroom apartment units and possibly a small grocery store to serve residents. Project developers hope to finish the first phase by the end of 2022. U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran said housing is near the top of the list of needs to keep rural Kansas thriving. “The reason it’s good to be in Garden City is this is a place that has figured out how to make good things happen. You’re a role model for growth, prosperity. The things that are happing here are things we hope happen across our state,” he said.
