Glendora : Senior Housing Being Built

Share

Fourteen years after Dr. Paul and Marilyn Geleris donated 13 acres of land to Glendora, construction has begun on the Geleris Senior Housing complex.

The 157-unit complex is being built on the donated site by the Andover/Chandler Co., which is paying construction costs of an estimated $6.5 million, said Keene Wilson, assistant to Glendora’s city manager. The project is expected to be completed in late 1992, and the city plans to lease the complex to Andover/Chandler for 55 years.

The complex, at 1000 S. Glendora Ave., will be available to people 55 and over, Wilson said. Company officials estimate that monthly rent will be about $365 for a one-bedroom unit and $420 for a two-bedroom apartment.

Forty-five of the units will be subsidized by Andover/Chandler to accommodate senior citizens with yearly incomes of less than $21,000.
