The site is located within the Glen Park/University Park West neighborhood in south-central Gary.
The site’s residents enjoy convenient access to the Little Calumet River Trail (a component of the Gary Green Link Plan), the South Gleason Park Golf Course, a local private school, Indiana University Northwest, multiple bus stops, and multiple retail establishments at the intersection of Grant Street and West 35th Avenue.
The site is just west of the target neighborhood for Gary’s Choice Neighborhoods Initiative, which aims to comprehensively redevelop the eastern half of the University Park neighborhood.
This property is funded through HUD’s Public Housing program. These properties are typically owned and managed by a Public Housing Authority. These properties tend to be much older, as no new public housing has been built in many years. Since the Federal budget has historically (and notoriously) underfunded public housing renovations for decades, these properties tend to have higher vacancies due to uninhabitable units or liveable units that are in poor condition. In addition, since all public housing properties offer rent subsidies, low-income residents only pay rent based on their incomes. For that reason, these properties tend to have longer waiting lists. Check our public housing waiting list data for more information. Since Glen Park Senior High Rise participates in the Public Housing 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.
