The Burlington Free Press reports that "the West River Valley Senior Housing development in Townshend is being recognized as the No. 1 new senior housing development in the United States" by the Affordable Housing Tax Credit Coalition. The Townshend complex, which opened last October, provides a mix of market-rate, affordable and rent-subsidized units, including 24 independent living apartments and 28 units of assisted living. The organization will receive the award at a ceremony in Washington later this week, and " Housing Vermont, which helped develop the Townshend project, will receive a $5,000 award."
