Wheeling Tower is located one block north of Dundee, on Milwaukee Avenue. The outstanding bonus to this location is that the Wheeling Senior Center is located directly across the grass with a small pond surrounded by water fountains. The entrance to the building has a picturesque walkway, weeping willow trees, benches and a gazebo. The building is located within walking distance to area shopping and exquisite restaurants. There is a senior bus shuttle with pick up/drop off service at the front door. There are many churches and synagogues within close proximity of the building.
Since Wheeling Tower participates in the RAD Section 8 Project-Based Section 8 Program, your rent would be subsidized. You would not pay more than 30% of your income for rent. To qualify, you must earn 50% or less of the Area Median Income (AMI), which you can find on this page’s income chart. Also, project-based RAD Section 8 properties tend to have longer waiting lists, with some with waiting lists going out for years. Since this property participates in the RAD Section 8 Project Based Rental Assistance program and has a property based subsidy, if you have a Section 8 voucher, you would have to give up your voucher to move in.
