Helena, Montana

Fire Tower Apartments is a 44 unit project located in the heart of downtown Helena. The project was built in 1981 as mixed income and market rate housing. In 2020, the project was purchased and rehabilitated by Wishcamper Development Partners and is now 100% affordable with a Housing Assistance Payment Contract on 31 of the apartments. The project was financed with Low Income Housing Tax Credits, a Multifamily Coal Trust Loan, and National Housing Trust Funds. Tyson O’Connell was the primary developer who structured the financing and completed the project that provides critical affordable housing and revitalized a key part of downtown Helena.
