Built in 1959, the oldest of all of our complexes has the distinctive features of quality housing. Apartments include hardwood floors, large closets, and very large kitchens.

The heat is supplied from a central boiler plant with each apartment having its own thermostat. The complex has new defrost free refrigerators, Hotpoint electric stoves and relatively new cabinets.

We do, however, provide an on-site laundry room and outside storage sheds. The heat is supplied from a central boiler plant with each unit having its own thermostat.
