Affordable housing set for Crown Heights site with rents from $375
A new affordable housing project is coming to Crown Heights, with some units reserved for the formerly homeless and seniors, and rents beginning as low as $375 per month.
The Settlement Housing Fund, the lead co-developer and a social services provider, and Beechwood Homes, the general contractor and co-developer, are constructing a 45-unit all-affordable building called Weeksville Place on property the city has owned for three decades or more. Twenty-six apartments will be reserved for seniors.
Executives from the development team and their architect revealed details of their project to Community Board 8’s Housing Committee on Wednesday night.
