Upon completion, Gini’s House will consist of 17 two-bedroom and 1 one-bedroom residential units. For the convenience of the residents, it will feature various amenities like central air conditioning, refrigerators, ranges, furnished units, security cameras, security staffing, an exercise room, and a community room with computers and Internet access.

Apart from that the scheme will also house on-site case management offices and support services for the residents that include education, job training and employment assistance.

The construction work is scheduled to complete in the spring of 2014.
