Charlotte Villa I
- Multi-Family Housing Rental (for Elderly)
Location: Sinclairville, NY - 14782 Contact Phone: (716) 962-8419 Details: The Charlotte Villa 1 building was originally constructed around 1923. For most of its life it served as the High School, and more recently as an Elementary School. In the late 70’s, Nelson Capital Development, Inc. began meeting with an contingent of elderly activists who wished to have eldery housing in Sinclairville, and in that building. Nelson Capital was asked to make their wish happen, and it was successful in doing so. This was the first housing project for Nelson Capital, and for the elderly activists it was the beginning of what was to become known as the Sinclairville 76r’s for Better Living, Inc. That organization continues to work in the community serving the elderly population. Looking at the building picture to the right, the now two story section houses eight apartments, it was previously the Gym/Multi-purpose area. The lower floor of the story section was the Library, Locker Rooms, and Maintenance areas. The Community Room was said to have been where heating coal was received, and the two upper floors were classrooms. The Charlotte was rehabilitated and converted to elderly housing during 1979 and 1980. It formally opened its doors to tenants September 1, 1980. |
Charlotte Villa Ii
- Multi-Family Housing Rental (for Elderly)
Location: Sinclairville, NY - 14782 Contact Phone: (716) 962-8419 Details: The Charlotte Villa II original construction was completed in 1985. The 12 single bedroom apartments included one designed for handicapped/disabled persons. The tenants are served with one common Laundry Room. A common Community Room is located in the Charlotte Villa 1 building. The picture to the left shows the original look. Note the low roof profile, and that the front entrance is exposed to the weather. During the winter months the roof often needed to have the buildup of snow and ice formations removed by shoveling. The 2007-2008 rehabilitation of mostly the building’s exterior created a dramatic change in appearance. The peaked roof was accomplished by installing new roof trusses above the existing. The new roof profile better handles the heavy lake effect snow accumulation in this snow-belt area in Chautauqua County. The colors of the new vinyl siding and the roof were selected to show a rustic theme. The colors selected also have a connection with the Charlotte Villa 1. For tenant and visitor convenience, the rear entrance, which had some natural weather protection, received a new roof extension that better shielded that entrance from weather. The front received a new closed in Foyer. Tenants appreciate this feature as it provides a place to wait for a ride, more convenience when entering with arms full of packages, and a great place to carry on a conversation with neighbors. The, what has been referred to as “bump-outs for the second floor windows, were all demolished rebuilt, and new energy efficient windows installed. This work was financed by a rehabilitation loan of approximately $400,000 from the USDA, Rural Development, and equity invested by local investors from the Sinclairville Housing Limited Partnership II, Tenant Rental subsidy is provided by the NYS Rural Rental Assistance Program. |
