Habitat for Humanity on Halsey

Habitat for Humanity is developing this corner at Halsey Street and Marcus Garvey Boulevard into homes for nine families. The townhouse-style residences are being built in compliance with EnergyStar standards as part of Habitat-NYC’s Green Building program. From the rendering on the group’s website, we think the design certainly looks a cut above most of the new buildings in the area, though it is unfortunate that the facades will not align with the existing brownstones on the block. What a waste. Is this to accommodate front-yard parking, do you think?
