Rest assured when the 100 apartments now under construction on the west side of North Main Street at the Lancaster Drive intersection are completed they will be snapped up in no time at all.

It is the first rent-restricted complex being built that is not designed for seniors only since the 153-unit Juniper Apartment complex was completed roughly a decade ago on Atherton Drive east of Van Ryn Avenue. That complex is considered workforce housing as the rent is tied to a set percentage of the renters’ income.

The North Main apartments are among 3,050 units either under construction, approved or proposed for Manteca.

Rent-restricted units are rented based on household income and size with a sliding cap on what tenants pay. Juniper Apartments has had a fairly long waiting list ever since it first opened.

The new complex is going behind the Moose Lodge and the small complex anchored by a Chevron station and convenience store t North Main and Lancaster Drive.

It will be Manteca’s third rent-restricted apartment complex. The other is on Wawona at Union Road.

There is a fourth affordable apartment project that has been proposed.

It consists of 270 units on 9 acres on the northeast corner of Airport Way and Woodward Avenue dubbed Pacific West Affordable apartments.

There are four low-income senior complexes in Manteca as well.

CRP Affordable Housing  — with offices in San Diego, Los Angeles, and New York — is building the North Main Street complex.
