EHT’s New Affordable Housing Apartments Now Accepting Applications

The Clarion Hotel in West Atlantic City is transitioning in to the Atrium Apartments at Egg Harbor, a project mandated to satisfy the state's obligation for affordable housing.

Phase one of the Atrium includes 84 units with new appliances in a variety of one, two, and three-bedroom apartments. Rents start at $549 per month for a one-bedroom unit to $810 for a three-bedroom model.

The website for the Atrium Apartments promises "beauty and warmth of its lovely, two–story entrance and six-story, sky-lighted atrium. Our apartments are conveniently located close to major highways, shopping, recreation, entertainment, and employment opportunities. Many shopping options are within walking distance."

A second phase of the project at the Black Horse Pike location will include 60 more rooms, bringing the total number to 144 units. Egg Harbor Township is mandated by the state to provide 763 total units of new affordable housing.

To qualify to live at the Atrium, you must earn at least $15,072, but not more than $47,700 per year.

Rental applicants must pass criminal, background, credit and drug screenings and have a recommendation from a previous landlord.
