RSH Architects was commissioned by Action Housing, Inc. to design and develop  this 36,888 square foot complex, which features 48 housing units designed for seniors, located on a seven-acre wooded site in Beaver County, Pennsylvania.  Each unit consists of a one bedroom apartment with amenities such as air conditioning, carpeting, and window treatments, and includes a living room with dining area, full kitchen, full bath and foyer.

In addition, the complex includes a small management office, a community activity room with cooking amenities, a full shared laundry facility, and a large exterior patio. The building was designed with a masonry and plank bearing system. Its open floor plan encourages senior residents to use the entire facility, and conveniences like shallow rise stairs and an elevator allow for easy access throughout the 4-story building.

Design and development for the Center Township Elderly Apartments was made possible through funding from Section 202 of U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Supportive Housing for the Elderly Program and monies from the Federal Home Loan Bank. The project was sponsored by Action Housing, Inc., a not for profit corporation, and was built by Repal Construction Company, Inc.  Construction was completed in September 2001.
