NYC Readies RFQ for Flatbush Affordable
The de Blasio administration plans to launch a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to develop 130 affordable housing units and community space for vocational training at 2286 Church Ave. in Brooklyn’s Flatbush neighborhood. The city’s Department of Housing Preservation and Development will release the RFQ later this year, followed by a Request for Proposals in 2020.
The 29,000-square-foot development site formerly contained a late 19th-century school building, which was demolished in 2015 due to hazardous structural conditions.
“As the city of New York continues to cope with an unprecedented public health crisis, we must remain focused on our obligation to make affordable housing, education, and job training a top priority for the community,” said Council Member Mathieu Eugene. “This wonderful project will have a positive impact on the lives of so many people, including our youth who are in dire need of opportunities where they can acquire the tools for success.”
