The Benedict Apartments: A new beginning in Glenwood Springs

Published on January 30, 2025

Nestled between the soaring peaks and rivers of Glenwood Springs, a new chapter is unfolding for many in need of affordable housing. The Benedict, a new development by Catholic Charities Housing, is set to provide a rare opportunity for low-income seniors to live in a place where they can enjoy both the beauty of the mountains and the comfort of an affordable home.

The project, currently under construction and set to wrap up in September 2025, is already generating buzz in the community. In a town known for its expensive real estate, where properties can easily exceed millions of dollars, affordable housing is in short supply. Glenwood Springs, with its picturesque views, natural hot springs and thriving tourism industry, has long been out of reach for many seniors on fixed incomes.
