West Oakland is now the proud location for the new 100% affordable housing complex for low-income families. The Black Panther Apartments gets its name from developer and former Black Panther chairwoman Elaine Brown, who says she intends to honor the party throughout the building. Brown helped raise $80 million for the project, which features 79 units and includes ground floor businesses for residents and the community.
