Van Sinderen Plaza Affordable Housing
Brooklyn, USA
Van Sinderen Plaza addresses New York City’s urgent need for affordable housing by transforming two long vacant sites into 130 high-quality apartments with street level retail and a community daycare. Developed under the Extremely Low- and Low-Income Affordability Program of the Department of Housing Preservation and Development, the project combines city- and privately-owned manufacturing lots and rezones them as residential with a commercial overlay. Right next to the elevated tracks of the L train, at the border between East New York and Brownsville, the two seven-story buildings flank the avenue at the transit hub intersection to create a colorful gateway into the neighborhood. This 100% affordable housing development is LEED and Enterprise Green Communities certified.
