Affordable complex to be named after Dr. Hastick
Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Tuesday announced a plan to build a complex containing almost 300 affordable apartments as well as social services and amenities on Clarkson Avenue in Prospect Lefferts Gardens. The new complex, Clarkson Estates, is being developed by CAMBA Housing Ventures. The site, currently owned by the Health Science Center, is now occupied by a one-story brick garage. Of the 291 units, 146 will be set aside for homeless young adults, youth aging out of foster care and former prisoners. The complex will include a training kitchen, a library, a computer room and community rooms as well as a turf field. The social services “Hub” be named for Dr. Roy Hastick, who died of COVID-19 in April, according to Brownstoner.
