Graying Gays Will Soon Have Retirement Home In Hollywood
LOS ANGELES -- Graying gays will soon have their own retirement home in Hollywood.
The $20 million Encore House is being built by the nonprofit Gay and Lesbian Elder Housing.
The retirement home will have more than 100 apartments and even a swimming pool. It's expected to open next year.
Brian Neimark, one of the organizers, said they want to create an environment of tolerance and acceptance. Neimark said the Encore House house won't turn away straight seniors. But he said non-gay residents should expect to see same-sex couples dancing at the home.
