LAWTON LHA FIVE-TAB DIRECTORY RECONCILIATION — http://www.lawtonhousing.org/properties.aspx, reviewed September 29, 2026. The authority page contains FIVE tabs but only THREE named housing leads: Benjamin O. Davis Sr. High Rise, Pleasant Valley Community and Old Towne Square. Youth Community Center and Family Division are service tabs, not evidence of extra apartments. The existing generic 620 SW E Ave record was identified as Benjamin O. Davis Sr. High Rise rather than duplicated. Benjamin O. Davis Sr. High Rise: 620 SW E Ave, Lawton, OK 73501; phone/fax 580-353-5242. The authority publishes no bedroom mix, current unit total, rent or age requirement. The historical https://projects.propublica.org/hud/properties/OK005000002 includes 147 HUD units but associates 26 addresses with its inspection grouping; do NOT present that count as tower-only or current. Pleasant Valley Community: phone 580-353-5242 and a community-center image, but no residential street, unit mix or program details; it is unpinned. Old Towne Square: authority lists individually controlled heating/cooling, frost-free refrigerator, electric range, laundry, some accessible units, community/activity room, 24-hour emergency maintenance and a nonsmoking interior. Its authority tab does NOT publish a property street, bedroom mix, unit count, rents or leasing number. A third-party record last verified in 2019 (https://affordablehousingonline.com/housing-search/Oklahoma/Lawton/Old-Towne-Square/10074675) suggests 911 SW Ave E and Section 202, but the authority does not confirm those claims on the supplied page; the record is deliberately unpinned. The Youth Community Center tab gives 609 SW F Ave with ZIP 73505, while the authority's http://www.lawtonhousing.org/contact.aspx gives the CENTRAL OFFICE at 609 SW F Avenue, ZIP 73501, phone 580-353-7392; this is not a housing pin. The Family Division tab gives 1517 SW Pennsylvania Ave, phone 580-353-1894, as a service location, not a claimed apartment building. Neither is counted as housing. The site http://www.lawtonhousing.org/ labels the general Section 8 and veterans' resource center lists open and Public Housing and Elderly Housing lists closed; this is not a property-by-property vacancy or waitlist determination. Application portal https://www.pha-web.com/portals/onlineApplication/1673 renders empty list labels in a text-only extraction, so confirm actual intake with the authority before applying. LHA's http://www.lawtonhousing.org/hcv.aspx describes Section 8 vouchers, public housing, elderly housing and time-limited veterans' transitional housing as different programs; do not assign one program's status or screening to every site. Property-specific criminal-history rules were not found.
