More than 85 seniors earning low-income wages have a new modern apartment in St. Pete to call home.
Earlier today, developer Blue Sky Communities and Park & Eleazer Construction cut the ribbon on the new 85-unit Bear Creek Commons affordable housing complex at 635 64th Street South in west St. Pete, adjacent to Bear Creek, a 2.7-mile stream that flows to Boca Ciega Bay.
The property was previously home to Grace Connection Church before construction commenced in 2023.
The community is fully occupied and all of the residents have recently moved into the four-story building.
The complex features 47 one-bedroom, one-bath units and 38 two-bedroom, two-bath units ranging from 651 to 977 square feet. Each unit is equipped with multiple energy-efficient features.
Community amenities include a fitness room, game room, gazebo, large back porch, and outdoor recreation space.
The Global Award winner will be announced in December in London. (Globals)
