Project Description
A new affordable housing complex and health care clinic for those 55 and older has opened in the Felida neighborhood of Vancouver, Washington.
The Oregon-based nonprofit, Specialized Housing Inc., worked for four years to obtain funding and support for the project.
Felida Park Senior Housing includes 65 units in the three-story structure. The adjacent 9,000-square-foot clinic for low-income seniors is a Program for All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly or PACE clinic, which is funded by Medicare.
The wood-framed complex covers 72,000 square feet and has one- and two-bedroom apartments, community space, a multipurpose room with a kitchen, a garden, and a 100-kw solar array. Architect Bill Wilson designed seating areas and activity spaces between rooms to break up the long hallways.
A large porte cochere frames the main entrance with another entrance at the clinic, which serves not only the residents living there but also others from Clark County.
The complex sits next to the 15-acre Felida Community Park. Groundbreaking for the project occurred in late 2024, and it was completed in January 2026.
