The Hacienda affordable housing complex in Richmond is getting a major upgrade. On Wednesday, a group of stakeholders gathered on Zoom to celebrate its virtual groundbreaking and revitalization. Shuttered since 2015, an overhaul is in the works for the long dilapidated, 150-unit complex at 1300 Roosevelt Ave. The project will maintain the overall layout of the existing building, while implementing design changes to make it more pedestrian friendly, secure and community-oriented.
When the project reaches its anticipated completion in 2022, Hacienda will play home to a community of at-risk seniors age 62 and older. The revamped affordable housing complex will include 25 units for formerly homeless seniors, 15 units for the frail elderly and 108 units for low-income seniors making less than 50 percent AMI. Hacienda will have onsite resident services and case management with amenities to serve the senior community.
