NEW YORK: The fiftieth entry for the seniors housing Global Awards 2016 has been received.
Arlington County Board has approved the plan for Gilliam Place, a new development on the site of the Arlington Presbyterian Church in Columbia Pike’s Town Center.
The Arlington Partnership for Affordable Housing (APAH), a nonprofit organization that develops, preserves and advocates for affordable and quality rental housing for low- and moderate-income families, began working with the church in 2012 on Gilliam Place, which will provide 173 new affordable apartments as well as 8,950 square feet of ground floor retail and civic space.
The new building, which is designed to meet Earthcraft Platinum standards for environmental efficiency and sustainability, will have 17 barrier-free units for disabled residents and multiple services for residents.
