Bronx River Addition
In April 2024, Bronx River Addition residents voted for the Trust! Bronx River Addition, located in the Soundview neighborhood in the Bronx, was the second NYCHA development to vote to become a Public Housing Preservation Trust site. 122 residents voted, representing 61% of heads of households. Their voices were heard, and they had ownership in shaping the future of their homes - now let’s get to work!
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 Bronx River Addition to inform residents and other stakeholders of the project process.
