Brooklyn’s Bedford-Stuyvesant community welcomed a newly constructed affordable housing building for senior residents on the campus of NYCHA’s Sumner Houses.

The 11-story development – built on underutilized land at Sumner Houses – features 132 apartments available to senior households earning 50 percent or less of the Area Median Income (AMI), 57 apartments reserved for older adults who formerly experienced homelessness, and one apartment for a live-in superintendent. NYCHA residents will receive preference for 33 apartments.

“This project is a success story for NYCHA, HPD, HDC, and, most of all, seniors in Brooklyn, who are receiving new affordable homes built specifically for their needs,” Mayor Adams said. “I’m so excited that hundreds of older New Yorkers will now have the opportunity to live in this safe, modern, affordable space with the amenities and programs they deserve.”
