Local nonprofit, Samaritan Recovery Community (SRC), has partnered with Holladay Ventures and Evergreen Real Estate to create Shelby House. The property is located at the corner of Shelby Avenue & South 4th Street.
Shelby House will include a mix of 484 affordable residences, including a 71,000 square-foot recovery services center for the nonprofit. Groundbreaking is anticipated this month.
SRC’s program graduates will have first-come, first-serve access to these units when possible. Shelby House is located where Samaritan Recovery Community has operated for more than 50 years in East Nashville. The non-profit mainly serves indigent, homeless, and unemployed individuals through substance abuse recovery services. Here’s a short video of the development.
Since 1964, Samaritan Recovery Community has created an environment that strives to preserve and promote the dignity of the persons served. Here’s the development rundown:
