A senior apartment community in one of Richmond’s more imposing 19th-century structures is set to get a multimillion-dollar upgrade.
Shockoe Hill Apartments, a subsidized housing complex for low-income seniors in the 1860s-era Almshouse on Hospital Street, is slated for $15 million worth of renovations following a recent City Council approval allowing the issuance of tax-exempt bonds to fund the project.
The multifamily housing revenue bonds, to be issued by the Richmond Redevelopment & Housing Authority, will fund renovations to the complex’s 125 apartments and a conversion of one of the buildings into a community center and leasing office.
