More affordable senior housing is slated for Springfield as the second phase of a project that aims to build a total of 110 of those units, representing nearly $25 million in investment, will began in August.
The second phase of the Community Gardens project aims to build 60 one-bedroom apartments for seniors 55-years-old or older, and will add to existing affordable housing stock in the city. The first phase of the project built 50 two-bedroom units and was completed in 2018, creating a pocket neighborhood at the former Community Hospital site on Burnett Road and East High Street.
