After the unfortunate Hurricane Katrina hit Louisiana, large of number families are relocating to Texas, and especially Austin. A large number of government, as well as private organizations, have come up with donations and funds, to bail out these families and provide them housing. The church is also playing an important role, with many volunteers of the parish coming forward, with their donations and are helping, families to relocate.
There are areas earmarked in specific pockets of Austin for building, accessible and affordable apartments for the senior citizens of society. Places such as Lyons Garden in central east Austin, caters to adults in the age group of 62 and above, who have very low income and live independently, with the help of support services. This area also caters for a medical center to take care of the medical requirements of the elderly. There is a library for the elderly, and also a playground, for the grand children to play when they come visiting. This venture is based on the essence of ‘SMART’ growth that is safe, mixed-income, accessible, reasonably priced and transit-oriented.
