Permits have been approved for a new 10-story affordable senior housing development at 105 W. Tremont Ave. in the Morris Heights neighborhood of the Bronx. Developed by Crown Holdings in partnership with The Community Builders, one of the nation’s largest affordable housing organizations, the project will provide 95 Affordable Independent Residences for
Seniors (AIRS) and form part of a broader neighborhood regeneration initiative in Morris Heights.
Designed by Crown Architecture, the approximately 55,000-square-foot, 100-foot-tall building will bring housing and support services to a borough where demand for affordable homes outpaces supply. In addition to housing, residents will have access to onsite amenities and services that include community and recreational spaces, an outdoor patio and garden, consultation rooms, laundry facilities, bicycle storage and a 24-hour attended reception
The project incorporates a strong sustainability agenda through its Passive House design standards. The all-electric building will also feature an approximately 1,800-square-foot rooftop solar array.
