Patsy Sur Place opens as affordable senior housing in Tacoma’s Lincoln District

Patsy Sur Place, a six‑story building described by organizers as deeply affordable senior housing for older residents, held a grand opening in Tacoma’s Lincoln District, Tacoma Report said.

Organizers and speakers at the ceremony said the building is aimed at seniors earning roughly 30 to 50 percent of area median income. The broadcast described the project as “77 units of deeply affordable housing,” and elsewhere listed a unit breakdown of 47 studio apartments and 31 one‑bedroom units. Those two figures are inconsistent (47 + 31 equals 78); the exact final unit count was not specified in the program.

The grand opening was hosted by the Asia Pacific Cultural Center and the Low Income Housing Institute, the broadcast said. A speaker at the ceremony called the project “a beacon of hope,” saying it will provide stable housing for low‑income seniors.

Organizers identified the development as senior‑designated housing and tied it to a broader effort to expand deeply affordable options in Tacoma’s Lincoln District. The broadcast did not list the project’s funding sources, ownership entity, or the property manager; those details were not specified on camera.

The program included remarks thanking a person referred to as “Patsy” for contributions tied to the project; the individual’s full name and role were not provided in the segment.

Tacoma Report presented the item as a community announcement and did not record a council action or vote relating to the project in the program.

Clarifying details published in the broadcast: organizers stated incomes targeted at 30–50 percent of area median income; the program used both the 77‑unit figure and the 47‑studio/31‑one‑bedroom breakdown, which are inconsistent and left the precise unit total unverified.
