National CORE has broken ground on an apartment complex in Oceanside for seniors.
The Rancho Cucamonga-based developer of affordable housing, and the San Diego Community Housing Corp. will build Coast Vilas near Oceanside Municipal Pier, according a statement on National Core’s website.
The 56-unit project will be available to individuals 55 years old and older who earn between 30 percent to 50 percent of the area median income. Fifteen apartments will be reserved for veterans who have been homeless, and 12 of those will be made available for tenants suffering from mental illness.
The four-story community will feature elevators, drought-tolerant landscaping, low-flow plumbing fixtures, rooftop solar panels, high-efficiency lighting, and HVAC for better indoor-air quality, according to the statement.
On-site services will be provided by the Hope through Housing, which is part of National CORE, and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
An opening date has not been announced.
