Seattle Senior Housing in Ravenna
The Seattle Housing Authority (SHA) manages a program called the Seattle Senior Housing Program. The old Ravenna school has been remodeled into one of the twenty three apartment buildings managed by the SHA. The units in the buildingss are either one or two bedrooms. Buildings have elevators and also all have community rooms to encourage activity among the residents. All are smoke free.
To qualify, residents must earn 80% of area median income or less, and be 62 years or older, or disabled. Rents are affordable at one of four levels based on income. I see the sign out at the Ravenna location, which means that the waiting list is probably short right now. For further information, consult the website link above or just give me a call.
The old Ravenna school is located right next to the recently remodeled Ravenna-Eckstein Community Center, a children's playground and the Ravenna pea patch. There are also many restaurants and shops nearby, including Third Place Books, LaVassar Florists, DaPino Italian Deli and many more. About six blocks to the south is Ravenna Park.
Perhaps you know some senior who needs to move from their home but does not want to leave the neighborhood. This is the perfect opportunity to let them know.

Hi Glenn, senior housing here on Long Island always have long waiting lists. The one by you looks like a great place for seniors!
Jackie - It's one of the nicest apartment buildings around. I was surprised to see the sign out, hence the picture.
Glenn ~ This is a stellar example of what CAN be done and what SHOULD be done in every area of this fine country.
Tish - I'm beyond 62 myself and perhaps this is a good fit. I do love Ravenna and Ravenna Park.
