Construction Starts on 167 Affordable Apartments

Radson Development and its partners started construction on 167 affordable apartments at Martin Luther King Plaza in the Mott Haven neighborhood of the Bronx.

“Through the City’s new Mandatory Inclusionary Housing program and HPD’s OurSpace program, 67 of the 167 homes at Martin Luther King Plaza will be permanently affordable, including 33 homes for formerly homeless New Yorkers,” said Maria Torres-Springer, commissioner of the NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

The $63.7 million development, located at 869 East 147th St., has been designed to earn a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold certification. It’ll also include a green roof.
