The Hub of Opportunity is a transit-oriented, 200,000 square-foot commercial/residential development that will open in Spring 2020.

Located at 3900 S. W. Temple adjacent to the UTA Meadowbrook TRAX station in South Salt Lake, this innovative project is a community-based, mixed-use development that will bring together a unique combination of community services, workforce development opportunities, and community living for individuals with disabilities.

• The Hub will provide much-needed accessible, affordable housing: 156 total units, with 110 units designated as affordable housing and 16 units designated as a part of the NextWork Autism Transition Academy.

• The new building will serve as a replicable and innovative model of integration, employment, transit, and housing for individuals with disabilities.

• The hallmark of the Hub will be the NextWork Autism Center, a live/learn program for young adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
