New apartment building at New Bedford's Temple Landing will have 27 units for seniors

NEW BEDFORD — Construction of a 27-unit apartment building at the Temple Landing housing development was recently given the green light from the Zoning Board of Appeals.

The building will be four stories high and situated at the corner of Middle and Ash streets, adjacent to the Temple Landing community building.
