Description
- Developer | Owner | Manager: Lansing Housing Commission
- Proposed as an apartment complex for low income seniors in September 1969, the building is formally opened on September 28, 1971 and is dedicated to and named Oliver Towers after Ann Oliver, president of the Lansing Housing Commission from 1966 to 1968.
