Bethlehem Projects of Niagara, Affordable Apartment Building,
151 James Street, St. Catharines

Started May 5, 2006

Goal: To build 40 affordable, supportive apartments on James Street in St. Catharines for people of moderate to low income, including those with specific needs such as people with disabilities, victims of violence and the homeless. We plan to create an attractive, accessible apartment building that will blend into the neighbourhood, providing a safe, affordable and pleasant environment for tenants. Most importantly, we will provide a co-ordinated support service to assist people with the transition to greater personal independence. There will be one support worker on site and tenants will have access to programming offered by Bethlehem Projects of Niagara. There will also be a live-in superintendent.
