Housing Development

In Progress

55 Garden Street

Garden Street is the last project to be undertaken as part of our Anchor-Based Neighborhood Revitalization initiative (ABNR). This initiative brought new life a two-square block neighborhood in the City of Poughkeepsie. Once a neglected, crime-ridden area, this neighborhood has been transformed through the rehabilitation and new construction of 40 apartments, 19 homeowner units, and four commercial spaces. 55 Garden Street, a vacant, blighted building, will be torn down and replaced with a historically appropriate building housing five apartments. Two of these apartments will be fully handicapped accessible.

99 Thompson Street

Thompson Street will soon be a new home for our emergency shelter for homeless, runaway, and throwaway youth ages 11 -17. The current building on the site, which is completely uninhabitable, will be replaced with a state of the art facility that will provide more user-friendly and spacious quarters for the staff and children. The new facility will also include a new room reserved for a parenting teen.

Dubois Circle and North Clinton Street (Poughkeepsie Homeownership Assistance Program II)

Dubois Circle and North Clinton Street is the second phase of our latest homeowner housing development program. This project will create six single-family homes on Dubois Avenue and one two-family home on North Clinton Street for sale to first-time homebuyers. Homes will be available for sale through our NeighborWorks HomeOwnership Center of Dutchess County.
