NYCHA PACT Deal Will Upgrade 10 Harlem Properties
The New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) has selected a development team of MWBE firm Vaya Development, the nonprofit Ascendant Neighborhood Development and real estate firm McCormack Baron Salazar to comprehensively modernize a collection of 10 residential buildings in Central and East Harlem. The partnership will address $189.3 million in repair needs across 1,063 units through NYCHA’s Permanent Affordability Commitment Together (PACT) program.
The sites include Jackie Robinson Houses (189 apartments), 131 Saint Nicholas Ave. (100 apartments), Corsi Houses (171 apartments), Morris Park Senior Citizens Home (97 apartments), Taft Rehabs (156 apartments), UPACA 5 (200 apartments), and UPACA 6 (150 apartments). Collectively, the project is known as Jackie Robinson and the Harlem Scattered Sites.
Spread across the Central and Eastern sections of Harlem, the group includes a variety of building types including mid- and high-rise buildings, some built as early as 1900 and others as late as 1987.
