The John A. F. Hall Manor is a neighborhood of mixed-income housing in South Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, managed by the Harrisburg Housing Authority and named after former mayor John A. F. Hall.[1] Built in 1953, there are 540 apartments in 54 buildings spread over 43 acres.[2] The HHA plans to re-submit an application for a planning grant under the Choice Neighborhood Program, and apply funds to reconfigure the neighborhood with more vibrant amenities currently non-existent, and eventually redevelop it in the long term.[3][4] In the adjacent John N. Hall Club House (named after unrelated John Newton Hall, a late civic philanthropist from Camp Hill)[5] is one of the Harrisburg Boys & Girls Clubs of America locations. Also present is a community center with day-care and on-site family services and medical facilities.[2]
