Volusia County joined partners this morning to celebrate the groundbreaking of Bristol Manor, an affordable housing community for seniors in Orange City at 2300 Veterans Memorial Parkway. The community will provide 80 age-restricted units for residents 55 and older, expanding housing opportunities for seniors in the area.
Bristol Manor is part of Volusia County's ongoing effort to replenish affordable housing lost due to recent hurricanes. The project will feature 40 one-bedroom units and 40 two-bedroom units, providing safe, stable housing options for income-eligible seniors. It will be constructed on approximately 6.4 acres across from AdventHealth Fish Memorial. Supported in part by the County's federally funded Transform386 initiative, the project also includes federal and state grants administered through the County's Community Assistance Division.
Today's event marked the third of four approved Transform386 multi-family housing initiatives to break ground in 2026, reflecting continued momentum in delivering affordable housing availability and advancing the community's long-term recovery efforts. Wendover Housing Partners is managing the project, and construction is anticipated to be completed next year. Information on when and how interested residents can begin the pre-application process will be announced as the project progresses.
