Construction is underway on a new affordable and supportive housing development that aims to offer on-site care for Bronx residents in need.<\/p>\n
The development, located at 860 Concourse Village East, will soon be Renova West, an affordable housing building with multiple onsite services.<\/p>\n
Yarojin Robinson, of Gilbane Development, says these apartments will be affordable for all.<\/p>\n
“A market rate for a studio in this area is around $2,100 a month. These tenants will be paying less than 500$ a month,” says Robinson.<\/p>\n
Out of 266 apartments, 160 will be reserved for formerly homeless households and individuals with mental and\/or physical health needs.<\/p>\n
Rebecca Crimmins says this was designed to be a one-stop shop for tenants.<\/p>\n
“An idea that we call a whole health hub, so people can address behavioral or physical health needs in one location,” says Crimmins.<\/p>\n
The complex will have features including case management, care coordination and other support for tenants.<\/p>\n
