Breaking Ground, LGBTQ Senior Housing In Boston

By Tiffany Williams –

As we reach the 17th day of Pride Month, LGBTQ Senior Housing Inc. is breaking ground on a new development to convert the former William Barton Rogers Middle School in Boston’s Hyde Park neighborhood into 74 units of mixed-income housing for seniors.

The development project known as The Pryde, is New England’s first LGBTQ-friendly senior affordable housing project. 

The American Psychological Association reports that “More than 39 million people in the U.S. are age 65 years or older including 2.4 million people who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender (LGBT).”
