Public Housing

Gifford & Stanton Towers

Gifford Tower, a 12 story high-rise apartment complex, located at 2510 N. Clarkson St. and Stanton Tower, an 11 story high-rise, at 2600 N. Clarkson St., are two sites the Fremont Housing Agency owns and manages. Both Gifford and Stanton Towers operate under the rules and regulation of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Stanton Tower is designated strictly elderly, 62 years and older, and offers a Congregate Dining Service for a delicious noon meal at a very low cost. Gifford Tower serves all ages. To qualify for housing, a person must be of legal age to sign a contract in Nebraska. A Resident Support Services Coordinator was added to the staff in October 2012 to provide a variety of support services to the elderly and disabled residents. Handicapped Accessible units are available in both buildings for persons needing these features.

FHA does not discriminate on the basis of race/color, sex, national origin, religion, marital status, disability, familial status or LGBT. Occupancy standards dictate the number of persons allowed per 1 bedroom apartment. In times of high vacancy rates, eligible small families of 2 may occupy a 1 bedroom unit. In order to qualify financially, an applicant’s gross yearly income cannot exceed HUD Income Limits. Please contact us if you have any questions.
