Vendor/Contractor Name (including any “DBA”): Atlantis Community Foundation

 

Type and Scope of services to be performed:

Atlantis Apartments will be a 60-unit affordable apartment community with 15 homes targeted toward residents with disabilities, including several apartments that are accessible to visually or hearing-impaired residents.  In addition, all of the apartments will be constructed so that they are readily convertible to provide enhanced accessibility features.

 

The property is located at 201 S Cherokee Street in the Baker neighborhood of Denver. This is a Transit-Oriented Development, located two blocks north of the Alameda light rail station.

 

Of the total 60 units, there will be 15 for tenants at or below 30% AMI, 15 for tenants at or below 40% AMI, 15 for tenants at or below 50% AMI and 15 for tenants at or below 60% AMI.  Fifteen of the units will have Section 811 vouchers to subsidize the rents for persons with disabilities.

 

Atlantis Community Foundation (ACF) owns the property and is the lead entity behind the project. Atlantis Community Inc (ACI), the parent company of ACF, was formed in 1974 and specializes in providing services for people with disabilities, particularly with regard to supporting their clients’ capacity to continue to live as independently as possible. ACI currently provides services to clients at this site from an obsolete warehouse building.  At the start of the project, ACI will be relocated to another building onsite, the warehouse will be torn down, and construction will begin. Upon project completion, ACI will occupy this project’s first floor commercial space, where ACI will continue to provide services.

 

Construction is expected to start in July 2018 and full occupancy is expected in June 2020.
