Welcome to Congregational Place in Chula Vista: A New Community for Older Adults
We are thrilled to announce a fantastic new project in Chula Vista: Congregational Place. This development will breathe new life into a long-vacant downtown lot, creating a vibrant and secure community for older adults. Featuring a range of amenities and sustainable features, Congregational Place is set to become a cornerstone of our city’s revitalization efforts. This seven-story complex will offer 56 units specifically for low-income seniors, providing much-needed affordable housing. Although we don’t have details on the sign-up or prequalification process yet, we will share that information as soon as it becomes available. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting project!
Let’s go over some of the features of this new project that will make it unique.
