AIDS Services of Dallas is excited to announce the opening of LA MAISON at 511, a new housing project designed to provide affordable independent living for individuals and families affected by HIV/AIDS. This development project is the first of its kind in over 20 years, marking a significant milestone for ASD.

⠀

After receiving the green light from the City of Dallas’ office of Homeless Solutions on October 1, 2021, our general contractor commenced construction on October 4th of that year. Despite challenges, including a fire in August 2020 and the COVID-19 pandemic, we persevered and focused our fundraising efforts on enhancing the amenities for our new guests.

⠀

The development will consist of 16 units, housing up to 25 additional HIV+ residents who do not require intensive wraparound services. The apartments will enable ASD to transition 25 residents from formerly homeless permanent supportive housing to independent affordable living, with 16 head-of-household residents living with HIV/AIDS and up to nine family members.

⠀

Our new development is expected to provide relief to individuals and families facing hardship and homelessness in the Dallas area. The property will begin to accept occupants and host individuals who require affordable housing options as early as May 2023.

⠀

The LA MAISON at 511 project was designed by the Dallas-based firm Oglesby Greene, and it will be our fifth multi-family housing development owned and operated by ASD.

⠀

We encourage all interested individuals and families to submit their application as soon as possible, as we anticipate high demand for this affordable housing option.

⠀

We are thrilled to welcome our new residents and continue to serve those affected by HIV/AIDS in our community.
