New Apartments for Seniors Available Summer 2023 at Randolph’s Simon C. Fireman Community

The Simon C. Fireman Community is in the final stages of constructing 45 new apartments and new community spaces as an expansion of its existing property at 640 North Main Street in Randolph, MA. The apartments are projected to be move-in ready this summer, offering affordable housing with services so older adults can live their best lives.

While the first residents for many of the new apartments have already been identified through a lottery process that concluded on March 2, 2023, remaining apartments will be leased on a first-come, first-served basis at a monthly rent of $1,499 for individuals 62+ years of age who qualify financially. These apartments are also available to older adults holding mobile Section 8 vouchers.

Each one-bedroom apartment will be approximately 620 square feet and include a full kitchen, energy-efficient heat and air conditioning controls, laminate flooring, 24-hour emergency system, and bathroom handrails. Sensory and mobility accessible units will also be available.

In addition to the apartments, the expanded property will offer an additional multi-purpose room, fitness center, art/game room, deck, library and reading nooks, lounge, and two courtyards with walking paths. 

Residents of the new expansion units will benefit from all the services and supports offered to current residents throughout the Simon C. Fireman Community to keep older adults healthy, active, and engaged. These include an onsite dining program, daily programming to support seniors’ quality of life and wellness, transportation to local shops, security and facilities staff available around the clock for emergencies, a grocery and goodies store, weekly banking services, and a hair salon.

Eligibility

Applicants aged 62+ earning between $43,050 - $58,920 for a single occupant, or between $43,050 - $67,320 for two people, or individuals with mobile section 8 vouchers are invited to apply.
