HACA history/redevelopment note: Originally constructed in 1939, Chalmers Court was one of the earliest public housing developments in the country. The property’s name mirrors Chalmers Avenue, which runs north to south within the community. The neighborhood, once known as Riverside and before that Chalmers Farm, was annexed by the City of Austin in 1886. 80 years later, the Austin Housing Authority began the redevelopment and modernization of the community. This was part of HUD’s Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) program. With RAD, the Austin Housing Authority was able to move away from traditional public housing and create more affordable housing options for the city’s low-income families. Today, three apartment communities comprise Pathways at Chalmers Court—East, South, and West.. Source discrepancy/status caution: This is ONE combined profile with 398 total units across East (1700 E. 3rd St.), West (1604 E. 3rd St.) and South (1638 E. 2nd St.). The directory's East 2nd & 3rd Street label is not a single residential entrance. HACA links three separate manager application sites; the directory still labels its Pathways intake closed. As of September 29, 2026, HACA's https://austinha.org/find-housing/our-pathway-properties/ lists this property under “Waitlist Applications Closed.” Its “Bedrooms Available” label describes offered floor-plan sizes, NOT current vacant units. https://austinha.org/helpful-articles/applicants/how-do-i-apply/en/ says all HACA waitlists are currently closed and describes how to apply when a property intake opens. https://austinha.org/helpful-articles/applicants/do-i-qualify-for-housing-assistance/en/ says Pathways PBRA applicants generally need income at/below 80% of Austin-area AMI (some units target 30%, 50% or 60%), eligible immigration status in at least one household member, and property-specific credit, rental-history and criminal-background screening under the applicable Tenant Selection Plan. No conviction outcome or current vacancy is verified. Pathways PBRA is attached to the unit, not a tenant-based Housing Choice Voucher.
