Accessible Space, Inc. (ASI) is pleased to announce that its newest affordable senior apartment community in Nevada – Tonopah Lamb Apartments – is now under construction. Located at 4250 E. Tonopah Avenue in Las Vegas, the new senior housing will provide 34, one-bedroom apartments to qualifying low-income senior households with at least one household member age 62 or older. Rent is based on 30% of household monthly income, with rental assistance provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
Income limits apply, but no minimum income is required to qualify. Additionally, rent includes water, sewer, and trash/snow removal. Applications are now being accepted for housing; there is no application fee, and applicants are not obligated to move in by applying. Tonopah Lamb Apartments should be completed by November, 2012.
Tonopah Lamb Apartments will provide approximately 540 square feet of living space in each apartment, and wheelchair accessible apartments are also available for seniors who need a barrier-free apartment. Apartments include grab bars in the shower and bath, ample cupboard and closet space, and an open floor plan. Accessible apartments will include features such as accessible stove-tops and ovens, roll-under counters and sink in the kitchen and bath, large roll-in showers, 36 inch wide doors with lever-action handles, and raised electrical outlets and lowered light switches.
