New Aiea affordable senior complex seeking applicants 
After welcoming its first tenants earlier this summer, a new, all-affordable, all-senior rental apartment complex is continuing to accept applicants.
Located at the site of former Aiea Sugar Mill, the 140-unit Aloha Iā Hālewilikō project targets households earning between 30 percent and 60 percent of Area Median Income (AMI).
Using the calculations determined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), rent is estimated to be between $729 and $1,627 monthly.
The project was developed by the nonprofit EAH Housing. The Hawaiʻi Housing Finance and Development provided key financial assistance that included tax credits and low-interest loans.
Among the outdoor features of the project are a centrally located multipurpose room. EAH has partnered with nonprofit Lanakila Pacific to provide dedicated kupuna services such as meal distribution, digital literacy programs and healthy living support.
