Inside, there are one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartment homes, both pretty spacious and well-kept, with nice looks, elevators for easy access, and a non-smoking rule.

The buildings are professionally managed by Envolve Communities LLC and things like fire alarms and smoke detectors are all there, with at least one accessible unit for people who need that.
The apartments are part of a Section 8 (202) community, so the rent usually runs about 30% of monthly income, and there are income-restricted homes for seniors over 62, plus some rentals that qualify for tax credits.
