KeyBank has put together $13 million in financing for NRP Group's affordable housing development on the campus of MetroHealth in the Clark-Fulton neighborhood of Cleveland.

KeyBank Community Development Lending and Investment secured a $9.5 million construction loan for the mixed-use project called Vía Sana, KeyBank said in a statement.
