Reported policy summary	Kennedy Place Apartments, 3100 Gillespie St, Houston, TX 77020 (authority-supplied address), in the Historic Fifth Ward. Official https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/693a083bb9dac41de47a7499/6a66838ae3f95147b7f90bcc_Kennedy%20Place.pdf, created July 26, 2026 and visually reviewed September 29, 2026, identifies Houston Housing Authority as owner and classifies it as public housing. Housing Alliance HTX (formerly Houston Housing Authority) links this profile under its Low Income/Public Housing Communities section at https://www.alliancehtx.org/public-housing. The profile reports 108 homes: 20 one-bedroom, 58 two-bedroom, 26 three-bedroom and 4 four-bedroom (zero five-bedroom); this adds to 108. Originally occupied in 1982, its former 60-unit development was demolished in December 2009; the authority describes a $7.8 million federal-stimulus-and-other-funded redevelopment reconstructed in January 2011. The OLD 60-unit figure is not an additional or current inventory. Community features: amphitheater, walking path, playground and barbecue grills. Source transportation scores: Walk 52/100, Transit 42/100, Bike 56/100. Source-listed points of interest: Nance St at Meadow St bus stop 0.2 mi; Jensen Dr at East Fwy 0.4 mi; Clinton Dr at Jensen Dr 0.9 mi; UH-Downtown rail 1.5 mi and Preston/Burnett TC/Casa de Amigos 1.9 mi. It lists Bruce Elementary 0.5 mi, McCardell Academy 0.8 mi, Educational Learning Enrichment 10.5 mi; P&H Food Mart 0.6 mi, Star Stop 43 1.7 mi, Primo Food Store 2 mi; gas stations 76 1.2 mi, Shell 1.4 mi, Chevron 2.7 mi; Subway 1.5 mi, Jack in the Box 1.6 mi, Chick-fil-A 1.7 mi. Distances/scores are dated profile claims, not newly measured. Authority-wide public-housing guidance at https://www.alliancehtx.org/public-housing describes income-based rental assistance generally at no more than 30% of adjusted household income, with HUD Harris County income qualification generally ranging from 30% to 80% AMI; it does not post a Kennedy Place rent schedule, deposit, vacant unit or site-specific screening criterion. Professional third-party managers handle property operations; the authority advises contacting the particular community for site-specific help. General authority phone: 713-260-0500, office at 2640 Fountain View Dr, Houston, TX 77057 (not the residence). The PDF separately lists accessible-information contact 713-260-0353, 711 TTY or 504ADA@housingforhouston.com, not a general leasing line. The https://www.alliancehtx.org/public-housing-waitlist guide says a first-time applicant can create a https://myportal-housingforhouston.securecafe.com/ Rent Café account, but registration alone does NOT place someone on a waitlist. It instructs applicants to select up to three public-housing properties during an application period shown as June 22–July 6. That instructional window is NOT proof that Kennedy Place's waitlist is accepting applications on September 29, 2026; use https://www.alliancehtx.org/rent-cafe-access and the portal for the CURRENT opening/status before applying. A waitlist submission is not an apartment offer or criminal-history approval. No property-specific conviction policy or blanket acceptance appears in the supplied profile; ask the management office for its current written screening rules.
