For almost 100 years, it served as the elementary school for Nativity B.V.M. Parish. Due to changing demographics, the parish school consolidated in 2008 with two other parish schools, Our Lady Help of Christians and Saint Adalbert, into Our Lady of Port Richmond located at Saint Adalbert's parish. Now the newly renovated building will serve older adults, continuing its legacy as a neighborhood anchor and maintaining a Catholic presence in the community.
Nativity B.V.M. Place consists of 63 one-bedroom apartment units for age and income-eligible residents. The building also has community rooms, laundry facilities, and elevators. In addition, CHCS, a regional leader in providing senior services, will employ a Supportive Services Coordinator to assist residents on an as-needed basis and connect residents with various resources to help them remain independent and active. The building is situated in an ideal location, adjacent to Campbell Square Park.
