To mark the completion of Lake Worth Towers’ renovations, Related Affordable hosted a festive residents’ luncheon. Since acquiring this senior affordable community in May 2023, Related Affordable engaged in an extensive renovation process for all 195 units. Residents can now also enjoy new and upgraded communal spaces, including a new fitness center, library, computer lab and beauty salon.

Renovations are complete at Clifford House, a property acquired by Related Affordable in 2022: 101 Project-Based Section 8 apartments in downtown Bridgeport, CT. Residents will now enjoy upgraded homes and access to enriching communal spaces, including a community garden, fitness center, craft space and common areas on each floor.

Preserving affordability while improving the lives of our communities is a key goal for Related Affordable, a foundational part of Related Companies. Learn more about Related Affordable's important work in this video, which focuses on the comprehensive rehabilitation of Somers Point Apartments.
