Interlaken- Senator Mike Nozzolio announced today that that the New York State Division of Housing and Community Renewal has awarded $585,989 to the Village of Interlaken to construct 28 new affordable housing units. The new units will provide low-income housing to eligible seniors in Seneca County and the surrounding area.

“There is a great need for affordable senior housing in Interlaken and in Southern Seneca County,” Senator Nozzolio said, “Interlaken Senior Apartments is a great project that will provide quality and affordable housing for our seniors.”
