Garden Grove : Residents Due to Move Into New Senior Building
The first residents of the Donald S. Jordan Manor were expected to begin moving in today, less than a year after construction of the 65-unit senior citizens apartment building began and three years after the project was conceived.
About 400 people had applied for apartments in the three-story, $2.9-million housing complex adjacent City Hall. Funded primarily through a federal grant, the project contains three wheelchair units, 17 studios and 45 one-bedroom apartments.
It is located on the northwest corner of 9th Street and Acacia Parkway.
Residents must be at least 63 years old and earn less than $11,800 annually for a single person.
The Donald S. Jordan Manor is named after the former principal, vice principal and teacher at Garden Grove High School. Jordan also was chairman of the Garden Grove Senior Citizens Commission.
