The 46-unit multi-family Marion Villas apartment complex at 1600 Marion St. is taking shape and will offer affordable housing to low-income senior citizens aged 55 and older once it is completed. The senior living community will include a 1,200 square-foot community center and 3,000 square feet of commercial/retail space. The complex is being developed by the Fresno Housing Authority. Kingsburgs Economic Development Committee is recruiting businesses to fill retail space which specifically appeal to seniors as seniors will live above the commercial space, and/or to parents of young children as a preschool and a kindergarten school are nearby.

Meanwhile construction has kicked off for a new housing development known as Kings Crossing Estates at Kamm and Academy avenues. Signs advise citizens to be prepared for road closures at that intersection and to keep children out of the construction zone.
