John Sharp’s parents bought the complex in 1962; Sharp has operated it since 1991. There are 102 units, either a one-bedroom ($550-$600 a month) or studio ($450). Most units include utilities in the rent. There are four buildings with eight addresses; the buildings are attached but one cannot go from one to the other inside.
