New mixed-use senior living development opens in Washington, D.C.

True Ground Housing Partners recently held a grand opening ceremony for a mixed-use development that includes affordable senior housing residences for older adults.

Riggs Crossing Senior Residences will serve adults 44 and older earning between 30% and 50% of the median family income, adding 101 apartments of affordable housing to the Washington, D.C. area.

The community includes shared amenities like a multi-purpose space, fitness center, wellness room, outdoor space, in-unit laundry, quartz countertops and EnergyStar appliances. 

Riggs Crossing marks True Ground’s fourth new construction senior living development completed in the last three years, according to True Ground President and CEO Carmen Romero.

“We are thrilled to open our first community in the District in True Ground’s history. This is evident of our commitment to meet the growing need for affordable housing in every corner of the region. We understand that seniors are the fastest-growing populations experiencing homelessness, so Riggs Crossing is the latest example of how we are diligently working to fill that gap,” Romero said in a news release. 

The project is in partnership with EYA LLC as the developer and received partial funding of $25 million from the Housing Production Trust Fund along with Low-Income Housing Tax Credits and Washington, D.C.-area tax credits that totaled $24 million in equity that was purchased by Truist Community Capital. The project also received an allocation of $30.6 million in tax-exempt bonds from the District of Columbia’s Housing Finance Agency.
