WinnCompanies undertook the development of a property in Salem, Massachusetts and created 250-units of quality affordable housing. During the early years, the Winn team produced thousands of units of affordable housing throughout New England.By 1980, the company's philosophy had earned it a position of trust and respect among regional real estate professionals, lenders, and community leaders in Greater Boston and beyond. That reputation was enhanced with the development of the Bostonian Hotel in 1982-a solid example of the kind of vision that propelled the company into a series of successful ventures along the east coast. From the urban centers of the Deep South to the mid-Atlantic region, WinnCompanies expanded its portfolio of properties, all the while becoming known as an organization of integrity, sensitivity, and style.
