Luther Tower is a 200-unit 14 story residential apartment building that was previously developed through a HUD Section 202 loan and provides housing to qualified low income seniors 62 years and older. Luther Tower is now section 42 Tax Credit housing for seniors, 55 years and older. With New Ownership in place, Luther Tower has undergone both full unit and community space renovations and installed state of the art equipment.
They are located in downtown San Diego at 1455 2nd Avenue in close proximity to Interstate 5 and the airport. The building offers one full-time on-site service coordinator who assists residents with personal concerns such as filling out forms, reviewing your mail, reviewing medical bills, locating domestic services, reviewing social security issues and much more. In addition, they offer their seniors the opportunity to be involved in various activities in the building such as Friday night bingo, card playing, dominoes, puzzles and arts & crafts.
This LIHTC property is among the most common types of affordable rental housing in the United States. The LIHTC program only provides subsidies to the building’s owner at construction. No subsidies are provided directly to the residents, but the owner must set rents affordable to low-income renters in the area. Our data suggests Luther Tower Apartments does not participate in any project-based rent subsidy program. This means you must earn enough to pay the full rent or have your own Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher. For that reason, LIHTC properties tend to have shorter waiting lists or even none at all. LIHTC properties nationwide are required to accept housing vouchers. LIHTC properties were first built in the late 1980's. Because they tend to be newer, these properties are more likely to have larger units, more amenities, and greater tenant service offerings than other affordable housing programs. This property might be right for you if you have a housing voucher or enough income to pay rent, are looking for a high quality property, or need immediate availability. Since this property participates in the LIHTC program, the property is required to accept Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers. As a LIHTC property that chose the 40/60 election, this property has agreed to set aside at least 40% of its units for families and individuals earning 60% of Area Median Income (AMI). Many properties have actually set aside more units than required by law, and in many cases all of the units at these properties are affordable to renters with lower incomes. Since this property participates in the LIHTC program, the property is required to accept Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers.
