Construction at Grace Gardens is officially underway!

Demolition of the space began earlier this week, and we feel so thankful to be moving into the next phase of this Permanent Supportive Housing project.  As per the original plan, the front office area of the former motel has been torn down as a result of the uneven floors.  There’s a tipping point where putting it down and rebuilding is simpler and more cost-effective than retrofitting.  The rest of the building’s overall footprint will remain the same and be completely renovated with hopes of being ready to welcome residents this summer.

The former motel was equipped with 36 units, but to allow for five fully accessible units, the plan is to eliminate four and in the end have 32 Studio Apartments.  In addition to individual units, residents will have access to a variety of shared spaces, including a community kitchen and areas for planned 24/7 support services.  Stay tuned for more updates!!
