Hong Lok House, a $33 million redevelopment on Essex Street, will provide 74 low-cost apartments for seniors, plus space for social services for Chinatown’s other elderly residents. The house, which opened in 1978, provided housing for 35 elderly residents and was previously a burlesque joint, a remnant of the days when Chinatown hosted portions of the adult entertainment Combat Zone. It is unclear when construction will be complete.
