Low-Income Senior Housing Coming Soon

What's all the commotion across the street from the Gazebo? It's the first stages of the long-awaited low-income senior housing project that's being developed by Eden Housing on Mt. Diablo Boulevard near Brown Avenue. Delays over a number of issues including financing, storm drain lines, and the existing EBMUD aqueduct hindered the ground breaking. Forty-five affordable rental units for seniors are on the way, with 17 of those units designed exclusively for disabled residents. The project features two inner courtyards and a community living room for residents to visit, watch TV, with an adjacent kitchen to host get-togethers. Presumably not all of the elderly residents will drive; there are 30 parking spaces available in an underground level. Good news is, Bo's Barbeque is within walking distance right next door. C.
