Location, location, location!
Section 8 - elderly and disabled, income restrictions apply. Excellent down-town location. Convenient to trolley and busses. Lots of activities in the summer on Market Square that are free! Apartment building was built in the 70's and could do with some remodeling but like I said - location, location, location!
