Ivy Senior Apartments
Ivy Senior Apartments will provide 52 supportive homes in San Diego’s Clairemont neighborhood for seniors with chronic medical needs who have experienced homelessness. These affordable homes are coupled with robust support services that help residents live more stable, independent lives. The proposed design includes a mix of one-bedroom and studio apartments, along with parking, lounges, a community room with teaching kitchen, a laundry room and office space. Outdoor gathering spaces, such as a courtyard and community garden, provide residentents with opportunities for communial activities.
