Even though it didn't look like it from the outside, the St. Augustine’s convent really was a home on the inside.

“I think the people that lived there … made it a home,” said Sister Peggy Youngclaus SND, who lived in the convent from 1965-1969.

As South Boston NDC prepares to transform the former convent into affordable senior housing, we are talking with sisters who lived there. “I think that’s wonderful,” Sister Peggy said about South Boston NDC’s plan. “I’m so happy that a convent is going to be used as affordable senior housing. I think that’s a great idea. Otherwise, it’s sitting there.

A letter from Bob Monahan: As we approach the end of another remarkable year, I am thrilled to share with you the incredible strides and milestones South Boston NDC has achieved.
