Designed by Smith & Company Architects, this affordable, LGBTQ-affirming senior living center features 112 one- and two-bedroom independent living apartments with full kitchens and washer and dryers for low-income individuals and couples who are 62 years and older. Additional features of the property include a 17,196 SQFT Club House building in the front of the facility which includes: a social services department managed by the Montrose Center, geriatric primary care clinic provided by Legacy Community Health, a group dining area, meeting and game rooms, a fitness center, dog park, and outdoor recreational spaces.

The façade and design reflect and respect the architecture and culture of the vastly changing historic Third Ward area in which the property sits, but also is designed to be consistent with the modern movement currently taking place with new and proposed developments in the area.

Since public funds were used to support the project, Federal UFAS and Fair Housing design standards, and Texas accessibility standards were needed to be met.
