Binnall House will be celebrating the 55th Anniversary of Retirement Housing Foundation (RHF), its sponsoring organization on Tuesday June 6th 2017 at 11:00 AM.
Binnall House, located at 125 Connors Street is a 134-unit, affordable housing community for seniors and part of the RHF organization. With its convenient location, Binnall House is a preferred choice for seniors in the community and has a very active resident population. To keep their residents busy, there are an abundance of programs available, but on a sunny day, you can usually find a group of residents sitting outside on the many benches surrounding the site.
