Slated to open next January, Eden Housing’s Lafayette Senior Housing is progressing nicely as you can see by the wood framing in the photo. Located at 3426 Mt. Diablo Blvd. in downtown Lafayette it will have 46 rental homes for lower income seniors. Seniors qualify if they earn between 20 – 50% of the Contra Costa median income. And to BBQ lovers out there note that this is located right next to Bo’s Barbecue.
From the developer’s website:
Lafayette Senior Apartments, Eden Housing’s thirteenth development in Contra Costa County, will provide 46 new affordable rental homes for lower income seniors. This exciting new community is conveniently located in downtown Lafayette in close proximity to transit and amenities. Lafayette Senior will be affordable to senior households earning 20% to 50% of the Contra Costa County Area Median Income, and will include 17 apartments targeted to seniors with physical disabilities.
Designed to create a healthy living environment, Lafayette Senior will include many sustainable features for energy and water conservation. Other highlights include an onsite manager’s unit, a community room that opens onto an outdoor patio and formal garden, two sunrooms that overlook a second courtyard, a computer learning center/library, an exercise room, and raised planters for resident gardening.
Residents living at Lafayette Senior will have access to supportive resident services designed to help them “age in place” and live independently for as long as possible.
