FITCHBURG --- Idle and in a semi-renovated state for six years due to a lack of funding, a 10-story downtown public housing apartment complex has been renovated into 96 units of affordable rental housing for the elderly and disabled. Fitchburg Place - formerly called Groop Townview Towers - was redeveloped with $19 million public and private funds by WinnDevelopment, which acquired the property last October through a joint venture partnership with the Fitchburg Housing Authority.
