Albany, NY Beacon Communities has closed on the acquisition of Ohav Sholom Apartments and the management takeover of Woodrow Wilson Townhomes. Beacon will be managing both communities with ten staff members as they continue to expand their footprint into New York. 

Ohav Sholom Apartments is a 210-apartment home high rise and Woodrow Wilson Townhomes a 100-apartment home development in Amsterdam.
