A Brief History of Aurora Village Co-op

On December 22, 1981, Aurora Village Co-op purchased the Henderson Drive property and shortly thereafter construction began.

Despite numerous delays in zoning conflicts, design approval and other irregularities, the townhouses were ready for occupancy in August 1982 and final construction wasn t due for completion until October 1982. Unfortunately, the garden homes and apartments were not completed until November and December of 1982.

This created undue hardship for many new co-op members as they had already given move out notices to their former landlords. Subsequently, these new co-op members had to arrange for alternative accommodation with family and friends.
