Tiger Senior Apartments
In downtown Paris, Illinois, the former Paris High School building has been transformed with innovative reuse into Tiger Senior Apartments, a 42-unit affordable senior living community for residents 55 and older. The adaptive reuse project maintains the original building’s Classical Revival architectural elements, preserving items like historic blackboards and lockers, and adding modern amenities to meet expectations of living today. The project shows the community’s commitment to its heritage while addressing today’s housing needs.
Residents have access to the amenities designed for convenience and ease, including energy-efficient appliances, secure entry systems, and ADA facilities. Shared spaces like a fitness room, community kitchen, and rehabbed gymnasium foster community and social interaction. In walking distance to downtown amenities, Tiger Senior Apartments offers the senior population the ability to age in place in a familiar and supportive environment.
