The project site consists of the property located at 3395-3401 Third Avenue, Borough of Bronx, New York City, New York (identified as Borough of Bronx tax lot parcels: Block 2371, Lots 52, 53 and 55). Comunilife will demolish two buildings located at 3395-3401 Third Avenue, Bronx, NY (Block 2371/Lots 52, 53 and 55) and redevelop the sites into a 148 unit supportive housing project. Comunilife will serve as the projects developer, sponsor and on-site social service provider. Ninety units will be set aside for special needs population that includes 75 units for formerly homeless individuals with HIV/AIDS and 15 units for young adults aging out of foster care. Twenty-eight units will be set aside for seniors at very low income levels and the balance of the units will be rented to low income individuals at 60% AMI. As designed, the project would consist of a single, newly constructed, U shaped, 10-story residential building, with a partial cellar level. On-site amenities will include: 24-hour security, a laundry room, a community room that will be made available to the greater community, bike storage and two landscaped recreational areas, one in the rear yard and the other on the roof.
