City Opens New Affordable Housing Development in Richmond Hill

Yesterday the NYC HPD celebrated the opening of a brand new affordable housing development in Richmond Hill. The development is comprised of two different sections: Richmond Place and the Richmond Hill Senior Living Residence. Richmond Place consists of 117 new affordable units for low-income families. And the Richmond Hill Senior Living Residence has 65 units specifically for older New Yorkers. According to the HPD, “Both were constructed on a Remediated Brownfield Location and are now energy-efficient affordable housing developments.”

The seven-story building has studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom units priced between $785 and $1,175 a month. The city broke ground on this development way back in 2011. Click through for more exterior and interior photos of the finished product. GMAP
