«New York is in the
midst of an affordable housing crisis, and programs like Section 8 are critical tools to keep hardworking families living in our City,» said Scott M. Stringer, New York City Comptroller.
The partnerships that made the Rev. Dr. Charles A. Curtis Plaza a reality are exactly the type of collaborative effort needed to guide our City
out of the affordable housing crisis.
«The assertion that H.P.D. allows vacant city - owned properties to languish in the
face of the affordable housing crisis is simply wrong,» HPD Commissioner Vicki Been said in a statement.
