About Savannah Gardens Senior
Located in Savannah’s historic neighborhood, Savannah Gardens Senior Residences is the first elderly development in the redevelopment of Strathmore Estates, a 44-acre site that contained 380 units of substandard rental housing located on Savannah’s East Side. Mercy Housing partnered with CHSA Development and the City of Savannah to redevelop this community, first built in the 1940s. The entire Savannah Gardens project is part of an EarthCraft Costal Community ensuring sustainable development and energy efficiency. Savannah Gardens Senior Residences is an income-based community in which the household pays no more than 30% of household income on rent. The property features 39 apartment homes for seniors 62 years and older.
