Welcome to JFK Apartments

John F. Kennedy Apartments, an Affiliate of the Cambridge Housing Authority, offers affordable independent living and assisted care services for local seniors in the City of Cambridge, Massachusetts. The renovated top-of-the-line apartment building features 44 spacious “independent” apartments for the elderly and disabled, as well as 25 apartments for seniors who want or require the option of assisted care services. John F. Kennedy Apartments also offers comfortably furnished community areas for residents’ use. These include a main dining room, library, living room, and lovely outdoor landscaped grounds with a patio. The apartment community is conveniently located just one block from the heart of Central Square in a residential neighborhood with easy access to public transportation, banks, shopping, dining and places of worship.

Service-Enhanced Independent Living

John F. Kennedy Apartments offers local seniors the privacy and independence of their own apartment, with the convenience and companionship of living within a larger supportive community. Each well-appointed one-bedroom apartment features a spacious and bright living/dining room area, a full kitchen and generous closet space. A variety of floor plans and handicapped-accessible apartments are available.

Residents also enjoy full use of our many comfortable indoor and outdoor community spaces, including a lovely landscaped patio with umbrella tables. Active seniors may take advantage of an easy walk to Central Square and nearby public transportation.

JFK Apartments is professionally managed by Senior Living Residences, ranked #4 in The Boston Globe’s 2022 List of Top Places to Work in Massachusetts! To be recognized at the very top of this list of employers is an extraordinary honor, made so much more special because this achievement was based on direct input from our associates.
