Nostrand Houses
NYC Public Housing Preservation Trust - Nostrand Houses
In December 2023, Nostrand Houses, located in the Sheepshead Bay neighborhood in Brooklyn, is the first NYCHA development to vote to become a Public Housing Preservation Trust site. This is a historic moment for New York City public housing, as 808 residents, 56% of whom were Heads of Households, voted in this democratic process. Ensuring their voices were heard, and they had ownership in shaping the future of their homes.
Resident Partnerships
The Trust plans on collaborating with residents and stakeholders throughout the duration of the project to ensure that resident voices are heard and included. We want residents to be active collaborators in the various processes like design to vendor selection. The Trust and NYCHA will host meetings near Nostrand Houses to inform residents and other stakeholders of the project process.
