W. Leo Daniels Towers, an independent living housing project: To provide elderly persons and handicapped persons with housing facilities and services specially designed to meet their physical, social and psychological needs, and to promote their health, security, happiness, and usefulness in longer living.
On July 9, 1979, an eight story 2.8 million dollar
project for the elderly and nonelderly disabled was completed; The W. Leo
Daniels Towers is located at 8826 Harrell, Houston, Texas. In August, 1979, the Towers opened its doors
to one hundred plus residents, many of whom still reside at the project. During
the thirty years, occupancy has never dropped below ninety-seven percent. The
Towers presently has a beauty shop, a washateria and a cafeteria with a central
dining room that accommodates 299 persons.
In 1998 a remedial education class was supported by Houston Community
College. In 2002, a Computer Technology Center was acquired and has existed
since 1980. The program is designed to
assist thirty (30) residents to maintain an independent lifestyle by offering on site services such as Nutrition, Housekeeping and Personal Assistance.
