New York, New York Jonathan Rose Companies is serving as co-developer of an affordable housing project in Central Harlem containing a 25,000 square foot youth center and 85 units of affordable housing. Twenty-four units are supportive housing units for youth aging out of foster care. The project also restores a community garden to the site. Built on City-owned property in Harlem’s Bradhurst neighborhood, the building is designed to meet the community’s critical social and environmental needs. Jonathan Rose Companies is developing the project on behalf of Harlem Congregations for Community Improvement (HCCI), Inc., a non-profit interfaith consortium of more than 90 different congregations that will own and operate the building. The project team is deeply committed to ensuring that the project’s design helps to repair the physical, economic, cultural, and spiritual fabric of the neighborhood. The affordable housing and community youth center are critical elements in the nearly 20-year old Bradhurst Plan, a blueprint for revitalizing this 32-square-block area of north central Harlem. In addition to meeting the needs identified in the Bradhurst Plan, the project is a model for environmentally responsible affordable housing design. The project has received a Green Communities Grant from the Enterprise Foundation to demonstrate the feasibility of green building techniques. The block and plank building uses innovative energy and water-efficient designs, mechanical systems and equipment, non-toxic and recycled material, a green roof, rain water harvesting, permeable paving, natural day lighting, and other strategies to demonstrate that green affordable housing can be cost effective in dense urban neighborhoods. - - - - Home \| Who We Are \| Projects \| News \| Resources © 2001 - 2007 Jonathan Rose Companies LLC Email us \| Contact Information		Firm Role Co-Developer Owner HCCI Construction Type Block and plank new construction with cavity wall and window wall façade Development Profile 85 units of affordable housing for youth aging out of foster care and a youth center Approx. 80,000 sq. ft.
