Is this the future of New York public housing?

An Arbor In the Forest: Green Affordable Housing Development Opens In the Bronx | Observer

A new Bronx housing project built through a private partnership and they have a rooftop garden, is energy efficient and green.

How will New York rappers cope when they can no longer brag about being from "Marcy" projects? :lupe: Will we ever see another Papoose?:to:

Arbor House cost approximately $37.7 million, a cost that was heavily subsidized, with $36.76 million provided in the form of local, city and state subsidies, Reso A funds, tax credit equities and tax exempt bonds. Additionally, NYCHA sold the land to Blue Sea Development at below market rate.Ms. Visnauskas said that HPD is increasingly embracing green building practices—Via Verde, another HPD affordable housing complex in the Bronx whose units went on sale last year, was widely lauded for incorporating green building techniques, environmentally-friendly features and decked gardens. But she added many of Arbor House’s features, particularly its living green wall and its rooftop farm, are a first for the department.

Gotta love the corporatism of NYC's real estate market :heh:

That street rap shyt been done. When those become a reality, and the hipsters make up the majority of the population, only then will people see the full effect of gentrification.
