County 46: St. Joseph

My trip to St. Joseph County brought me to the Heritage Place at LaSalle Square, a senior housing development that is currently under construction but presents great possibilities for the community in South Bend.

I joined Representative Timothy Wesco and local developers for a tour and a discussion about the impact of this project.  This area of South Bend had posed a problem for leaders for some time, and the entire community has been eager to see it improve.  The use of this property as a senior housing development is intended to rejuvenate a neglected area, bringing life back to the retail section with new residents to frequent the shops. 

This development was made possible with low income tax credits from the state, and I was proud to see state government partnering on a project that will have such a positive impact.
