Construction on an 80 unit seniors complex in Shelburne is set to begin in April. The $7 million project will be located in Sandy Point and feature two apartment buildings - home to 40 units in each building. The Seniors Independent Housing Initiative has been working to bring a seniors complex to the area for nearly three years. Chair Joan Bowers says there is a great need for seniors housing in the Shelburne area.
Bowers says the project is attracting a lot of interest and those who have committed to the units can expect to move into the complex by August or September. The project is being developed by Atlantic Baptist Senior Citizens Home Inc.
