Harvey Ill. – More than 100 seniors in Harvey had a little extra to celebrate this holiday season, with the completion of renovations on the 120-unit Jesse Jackson Jr. Apartments in Harvey. Mayor Christopher Clark joined the residents earlier this month at a holiday lunch and tour of the buildings’ new amenities.

Preservation of Affordable Housing Inc. (POAH), which owns and manages the property, completed more than $13 million in construction that modernized apartments, overhauled and replaced building systems and common spaces, and created a 1,300 square foot outdoor pavilion that provides a communal gathering open space that connects the Jackson East and West buildings.

“These buildings look fantastic and represent the kind of investment I and my team work every day to bring to the city of Harvey,” Mayor Clark said. “Everyone deserves a great place to live, especially our fellow residents in their senior years. And this looks great.”
