Description:
The Gardens at Sierra is a transit-oriented, three-story pedestrian-friendly affordable senior housing community comprising of 75 one-bedroom units and 18 two-bedroom units. The close proximity to existing retail, medical facilities, and the City’s transportation center – which includes a Metrolink and Bus Station – were all important factors in the decision to locate senior housing complexes, The Gardens and The Fountains, in the downtown area. Seniors can walk to the Metrolink and take the train to work in downtown Los Angeles or access the entire U.S. via Amtrak. The security-gated residential community includes a pool and spa facilities, along with more than 5,300 sq. ft. of community and recreation areas, including a fitness center, pool tables, shuffleboard, a computer/media room, a library, planned activities, events and seminars.
