The Houston Housing Authority (HHA) recently opened its newest affordable-housing complex, The Lawndale, in Houston’s East End.
The mixed-income community “is strategically designed to provide accessible, affordable housing for those who are vital to keeping Houston running smoothly,” HHA said in an announcement. Over half of the 106 apartments are set aside for any HHA-qualifying families and residents.
Units come in one- to three-bedroom floorplans and offer 10-foot ceilings, washers and dryers, granite countertops and chef’s islands.
Community amenities include a resort-style pool, pavilion with outdoor grilling stations, business center, lounge and dog wash.
To commemorate the opening, a ribbon-cutting ceremony was held with HHA President and CEO David Northern Sr., U.S. Rep. Sylvia Garcia, State Sen. Carol Alvarado and Houston Councilmembers Tiffany Thomas and Joaquin Martinez.
“We are proud to introduce The Lawndale as a crucial addition to Houston’s affordable-housing landscape,” Northern said. “It is one of the two affordable-housing complexes available on this side of the city with easy access to key transportation routes and major job hubs like the Port of Houston, Hobby Airport and Texas Medical Center, ensuring that our residents can live close to where they work.”
