Construction recently began on 90 market-rate housing units at 406 Bee St. bringing more housing options to the city’s east side. Bee Street Apartments LLC purchased the 7.8-acre vacant parcel for $1.7 million in August from JHM LLC of Lexington Mass. Keith L. Lenhart and Daniel J. Mancosh are listed as principals of Bee Street Apartments. Lenhart is president and Mancosh is director of AR Building Co. Inc., of Seven Fields, Pennsylvania. The land is appraised at $841,700. City officials and the general public have mixed views on additional housing in all areas of the city. Those opposed have expressed concern about potential drains on city services such as schools and public safety. But supporters say the city needs more varieties of housing stock at all price points.
