Welcome to Lenox/Camden
136 Lenox Street, South End |
|
Lenox Street is a conveniently located family development within the Lenox/Camden complex in the South End. Lenox/Camden is really two developments that sit next to each other and were built 10 years apart. Lenox, a federally funded development, was built in 1939. Camden, funded by the state, was built in 1949. However, the same group of BHA employees manages both and residents consider themselves all part of one family and share a tenant task force. Lenox Street includes 306 units of the total 376 apartments within Lenox/Camden, consisting of one, two and three-bedroom apartments. Both devleopments are three story walk up style buildings. Rents are calculated at 30% of a resident’s income. Residents have the option of choosing a flat rent as well.
