I am excited to share with you that Golden West will receive funds from the City of Boulder’s Affordable Housing Grant in the amount of $375,000 to replace windows and air conditioning in the central tower. Golden West will have to match this grant with $125,000 as the cost of the total project is at least $500,000. Read more »

As we enter into 2011 we can look forward to another busy year at Golden West. We can anticipate those hot summer days knowing that we finally completed the pavilion in the south garden. The pavilion was built in memory of Margaret Gray, a former resident of Golden West for many years. The cost of the pavilion was provided in large part by her family.

We can be assured that there won’t be any roof leaks in the South Tower now that we have the new roof replaced. Our fundraising efforts include writing grants and we did receive a grant to cover most of the cost of this $42,000 project. Hopefully, we will have fewer problems with the elevators now that the upgrades have been completed. Read more »
