The elevator will provide residents greater accessibility and mobility throughout the complex. The entrance will be locked at all times, with access restricted to tenants with keys.

    The manager’s unit will face the entrance, allowing the manager to conveniently observe the building’s entrance/exit.

    “This senior housing community represents several years of dedication and hard work,” said San Bernardino City Councilmember Virginia Marquez. “The City of San Bernardino remains committed to the revitalization of the City Center for our residents, particularly seniors.”

    In addition to the age requirement, those interested in becoming a resident must meet the maximum allowable income, which for a single person household means no more than $25,685 a year. A two person household can earn up to $29,370 a year, with a family of three earning as much as $33,055 a year.
    The completion of this project also helps the City of San Bernardino deliver more quality affordable senior housing units. San Bernardino is approximately 1,000 units short and these 119 units help meet that state requirement.

    For example, in the computer lab, seniors who have never used a computer before can learn how to keep in-touch and interact with their children and grandkids.

    Mandel added that Meta Housing Corp. is also very excited and hopeful about the possibility to develop other similar projects in the city and thus provide even more seniors with affordable luxurious accommodations.

    As such, Meta Housing Corp. formalized commitments with the City of San Bernardino and its lenders to remain affordable for the next 55 years, thus ensuring that that today’s and future seniors will be very well taken care of.

    “Overall, above and beyond the technology, amenities and structure itself, seniors will find a restful place they can come to call home and their families can rest assured that their parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles are enjoying their senior years in comfort and good company,” said Mandel.

    “We are very excited to bring another great senior apartment complex to San Bernardino and the region,” said Mandel. “We look forward to delivering more quality, affordable multi-family housing projects in partnerships with the county and cities in the next few years.”
