Fort Smith Times Record
When Irmalean Jones moved to Fort Smith, her housing options were more concentrated than they were in Louisiana.
Jones, 62, lives in Nelson Hall Beckman Center on North 31st Street after moving to the area from Alexandria, Louisiana two years ago. While Jones likes her home the residents are allowed to garden she did note the difference. They had them all through (the city), housing projects, she said of Alexandria.
Jones home is one of 471 rental units overseen by the Fort Smith Housing Authority. More than 90% of the Housing Authority s developments are built north of Rogers Avenue, and a majority of these are built north of Grand Avenue, said Fort Smith Housing Authority Executive Director Mitch Minnick.
