    • Assisted Living

    Clean secure well-managed but limited

    I live here and overall I'm pleased - my apartment is clean, secure, well managed and staff are helpful. There are no extras and rooms are small; meals are served in a common dining room, there are some activities and a resident council, but no onsite caregivers and care is limited (Medicaid can pay for aides) and strict residency rules apply.

    About Fort Lincoln Senior Building

    Fort Lincoln Senior Building sits at 3001 Bladensburg Road NE in Washington, DC, and offers 120 efficiency and one-bedroom apartments for seniors and disabled adults, with rent based on income and eligibility set by HUD, though there's usually a waiting list and an application process from the DC Housing Authority, which manages the property and makes available all details about ownership, management, and amenities if you ask for the property reports, and those reports also give a look at rent history, sales history, occupancy by the month, market value, metering for utilities, and even price per square foot or per unit, so there's no mystery about how things have changed over time.

    Built in 1977, this public housing community is large, stretching to 252,338 square feet with 364 total units in the full multifamily property, though the senior building itself has efficiency and one-bedroom layouts only, and nearby there are parks, pharmacies, doctors, hospitals, two theaters for entertainment, ten cafes for eating out, and three places of worship, which can be handy for staying involved, getting outside, or filling your day with visits.

    The site offers both assisted living and independent living services, with extra healthcare staffing for those needing non-ambulatory care, diabetes care, incontinence care, and memory care, plus meals are provided to residents, and there are on-site activities designed to help people make connections, as well as devotional activities off-site for spiritual needs, and the building's also near public transportation with seventeen options close by, so getting around DC isn't too hard.

    The management keeps information on amenities, utilities, functional and site details, and you can always get reports that outline in detail the kind of features the apartments and common areas have, and if you want to know about who's owned or sold the property, or get details about loans or buyers, that's available too; this place has served its role since 1960 as a mainstay in the Brentwood/Trinidad/Woodridge submarket of DC and stands as a quiet but practical choice for seniors needing a straightforward home with staff support, reliable information, and a community feel.
