Allegheny Point to open in June

Allegheny Point should begin welcoming its new tenants in early June.

The building should be essentially ready for occupancy by early May, according to Bob Yoder of Susquehanna Development Group, but the sprinkler system will probably not be installed by then.

June 1 has been the date tentatively set for new tenants to begin moving in, said Yoder.

Yoder said the building's sprinkler system will be connected to the geothermal heating system which will serve the building.

"We have to wait until the lines are in," said Yoder. "The well's drilled, the piping is here, and we're working on the geothermal loop, but the sprinkler has to be hooked up."

Applicants have yet been notified of whether they will be tenants of Allegheny Point, said Yoder.

"We're working through the list of applications at this point," said Yoder. "We haven't told anyone whether they're in or not."

Yoder said it is not too late to apply for apartments at Allegheny Point. Applications are available at the Warren Municipal Building and on the breezepointlanding.com website.

Allegheny Point will offer 20 one- and two-bedroom housing units. The street level of the building will include commercial space.

To rent a unit at Allegheny Point, tenants must be at least 62 years of age and the age requirement applies to all the tenants of an apartment.

For two people to qualify financially for a one- or two-bedroom apartment, the combined household annual income can be no more than $23,280. For a single person, the maximum allowable income is set at $20,400.

Sources of income considered include Social Security, pensions, dividends and bank interest.

Yoder said the question of whether the Warren Senior Center will be relocated to the lawn level of Allegheny Point is still unresolved. The board of the senior center has been considering its options, which include a move to Allegheny Point.

Yoder said nothing has been decided, but "We're still working with them."
