The Montrose Center: Law Harrington Senior Living Center Groundbreaking
August 6, 2019 @ 10:30 am - 11:30 am
You’re invited to the groundbreaking of the Montrose Center’s Law Harrington Senior Living Center!
The “There’s No Place Like Home” campaign, led by honorary campaign co-chairs, Mayor Annise Parker and State Rep. Garnet Coleman, has hit its final financial milestone in order to break ground.
The complex, designed by Smith & Company Architects, will feature 112 one- and two-bedroom independent living apartments for low-income seniors ages 62 and older. Eligible seniors will pay no more than 30 percent of their income for rent. Additional features of the property will include a social services department managed by the Montrose Center, geriatric primary care clinic provided by Legacy Community Health, a group dining area, meeting and game rooms, fitness center, a dog park, a vegetable garden, and outdoor recreational spaces.
Housing is one of the greatest financial challenges, and correspondingly, one of the greatest needs for older adults across the nation. The groundbreaking event will also honor and thank Mayor Parker and Representative Coleman for their vision and work to launch the senior living center.
