History
[edit | edit source]This housing complex was built in August 1959.[1]
21st Century
[edit | edit source]All of those buildings were funded by the PACT in October 2017 where it had started for $123M[3] that will strengthen its structure to restore three playgrounds, resurface sidewalks, change rooftops and install the back-up power generators on top of the buildings, renovate 30 of the 1st story apartments that were damaged by Hurricane Sandy, build a new community center and childcare building, replace sump pumps, and more.[3][4][5]
Soon,[when?] There will be six new buildings coming to this complex to be constructed from Hurricane Sandy in 2012.[2]
