Congregational Tower

Congregational Tower has 186 non-smoking units, a combination of one-bedroom and studios, with 16 brand new handicap-accessible one-bedroom units that feature lower cabinets, wider doorways, and larger bathrooms. Each apartment includes a full kitchen, living/dining area, and full bathroom. More than $11.1 million was spent to renovate the building in 2014. Energy-efficient renovations in the individual apartments included a new bathroom and kitchen plumbing fixtures, new full-size appliances, new cabinets, and granite countertops, new LED light fixtures, new windows and sliding glass doors, enclosed or walk-in closets, and a refurbished patio/balcony. Floor and window coverings are new throughout the entire building, and each apartment has electric heat and air conditioning. The common areas of Congregational Tower were re-configured and expanded by 2,070 square feet. The community kitchen is equipped with all new appliances and the community room has increased in size. With the re-configuration, the laundry room has been expanded and a computer lab with 4 touchscreen computers and a printer installed, a lounge/library, a recreational/media room with a Nintendo WII system and a large screen Smart TV with popular applications like Netflix available to use, a service coordinator office, an arts and crafts room, an outdoor patio with a gas BBQ, and additional public restrooms have been created. We also offer free Wifi internet access throughout the entire building, including each of the apartments. Congregational Tower is a subsidized housing community for seniors aged 62 & over. The term “subsidized housing” means the rent is based on income. A community resident pays approximately 30% of their income as rent.
