Aufgang Architects<\/a> has released details on two new, award winning, 100% affordable multifamily design projects in the Bronx.<\/p>\n

An 18 story 266 unit building at 860 Concourse Village East<\/a>, featuring a community health
services facility, is being developed by Gilbane<\/a>.<\/p>\n

At 1810 Randall Avenue<\/a> an eight story 180-unit building is being developed by Vertical<\/a>
Community Development<\/a> as senior affordable housing.<\/p>\n

On the site of a former parking lot, 860 Village Concourse East will consist of two towers
totaling 201,031 square feet. The unit mix includes 148 studios, 60 1-bedroom, 47 2-bedroom and 11 3-bedroom apartments. Amenities for residents include a bike room, a fitness room, laundry and package rooms, a \u201clearning kitchen\u201d for residents, a recreation room and lounge, an outdoor courtyard and a social services suite with offices and a conference room.<\/p>\n

The project will feature a 7,818 square foot Health Hub operated by the Institute for Community Living, offering a range of health programs and resources including group and individual therapy.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith nearby mass transit, this new affordable community is well-situated to reduce car reliance,\u00a0promote sustainable commuting, and conveniently connect residents with the broader city,\u201d said Ariel Aufgang, principal of Aufgang Architects.<\/p>\n

At 1810 Randall Avenue a new senior affordable community developed by Vertical Community Development has an apartment mix of 157 studios, 22 1-bedroom and 1 2-bedroom units.<\/p>\n

The design includes church facilities on the ground floor for a congregation that had previously been located at the site.<\/p>\n

Residential amenities include a gym, storage rooms, a bike room, a social support services
center, 1,285 square feet of outdoor recreation space and indoor recreation centers.<\/p>\n

The Aufgang design, built to passive house standards, won NYC Housing Preservation and
Development\u2019s first Future Housing Initiative award.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe growing demand for affordable, comfortable and safe senior housing in the Bronx requires an energetic response from the development community, featuring amenities that are important to seniors,\u201d said Steve Vlaovich, AIA, Associate Principal at Aufgang.<\/p>\n

In the past decade alone, Aufgang has designed over 13 million square feet of built space, comprising more than 13,000 residential units across more than 100 multifamily development projects, both market rate and affordable. These projects had total capitalization of approximately $3 billion.<\/p>\n
