Taylor began searching for an apartment last year, and after a lengthy search settled on the East Germantown rowhouse, simply because the landlord accepted his rental assistance. Taylor — a voucher-holder for nearly two decades — had lived for more than 10 years in West Oak Lane, on a grassy street where he was block captain, he said, and in an apartment that felt like home. On the day he moved to East Germantown, however, Taylor suffered a third heart attack, he said. Climbing stairs became too hard. And so, at the end of 2018, he was looking for housing again.
