New York City’s Department of Housing Preservation & Development awarded development contracts to construct an affordable housing property in Staten Island.
The city has issued an RFP seeking developers for a two-acre
affordable housing project on Staten Island’s north shore.
Stapleton Site A is a vacant lot south of Hannah Street that is part of the New Stapleton Waterfront District, a 35-acre decommissioned Navy Base (rendering pictured top via HPD).
The New York City Economic Development Corporation (EDC) is
overseeing the City’s redevelopment of the New Stapleton Waterfront into a
mixed-use neighborhood with housing, waterfront open space and retail and
community facility uses.
It will also include
significant infrastructure improvements such as road reconstruction, bicycle
and walking paths, and better connections to public transit.
