WILLISTON, N.D. (AP) _ Officials are launching a project to turn

a historic building in Williston into affordable housing for senior

citizens.

The old junior high school in the oil boom city is being

converted into 44 low-income apartments for seniors and space for

community events. A groundbreaking was scheduled Tuesday.

The school building was built in 1931 and has been shuttered for

several years. It is listed on the National Register of Historic

Places.

The $10.6 million redevelopment project is getting federal,

state and local funding and is slated to be completed in about a

year. The building is being renamed the Lutheran Social Services

Legacy Living at Central Place.
