Community center and supportive housing project underway on East Ninth Street

Yesterday, workers began putting up the sidewalk shed at 710 E. Ninth St. between Avenue C and Avenue D... at the Henry Street Settlement Day Care #3 building...



We reported on this project in May 2010.

The project includes a community facility space on the ground floor and in the basement... the upper levels will house 46 units (28 studios and 12 one-bedroom apartments). The housing will serve homeless young adults and young adults aging out of the foster-care system. An additional 12 units will be set aside for young single adults with a child.
