New Hope Housing recently broke ground on New Hope Housing Ennis, an age-restricted affordable housing community in the East End neighborhood of downtown Houston.

Located at 1846 Ennis St., the community will include 102 units reserved for individuals aged 55 and older who make between 30% and 60% of the area median income. In addition to affordable housing, the community will provide resident services, such as case management, emergency assistance, financial support and educational and recreational opportunities. Furthermore, thanks to a partnership with Houston METRO, New Hope Housing Ennis residents will have access to free transportation services.

The Harris County Housing Finance Corporation will keep the community affordable for the next 99 years.
