Swan Creek Apartments. View of the Swan Creek Apartments, 1928 E. 56th St., as seen in the fall of 1972. Built by Golden Ridge, Inc. in 1969, these apartments south of Salishan were part of 25-acre proposed low-income housing. The 80-unit project, totaling $1,174,800, was being built under the FHA below market rate program. Rents were scaled to low monthly incomes with one bedroom units running at $95 up to $142.50 for a four-bedroom unit. The buildings were prefabricated with panels, sidings and window frames from West Coast Mills. (TNT 8-31-69, B-3 article on project)
