A number of government and non-profit agencies are collaborating on an inventive approach to housing. They are converting a shuttered Ford dealership into the Ford City Motor Senior Housing complex at 419 Main Street in Salisbury, North Carolina. The new complex, planned as a 55-plus community, will have apartments spread across five buildings. A hallway with units on both sides leads to the former Ford Dealership showroom, now the community space for the complex, with large glass-panel windows.

The original historic structure will house 28 units, with the new expansion comprising 36 units, for a total of 64 units of multi-generational living space.  Rental costs will vary from $800 for efficiency units, up to $1,050 for two-bedroom units.

Development leader, Osceola Council on Aging (OCOA) will be joined buy HUD North Carolina, the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, and the North Carolina Housing Finance Agency in the effort.
