Through nonprofit affiliates, Settlement Housing Fund currently operates 50 buildings with more than 3,100 apartments in the Bronx, Brooklyn and Manhattan. Our largest concentration of housing, with programs for youth and families operated by our New Settlement affiliate, is in the Mt. Eden section of the Bronx, where a newly constructed affordable housing development and a recent acquisition brings the total number of buildings we own there to 24.
We also completed a major rehabilitation project, which upgraded kitchens and bathrooms in 893 units of the original 14 buildings at New Settlement, making the buildings more energy efficient, with systems upgrades that include the largest solar panel installation on a privately owned affordable housing development in New York City. The buildings will remain affordable for at least another 60 years and will continue to set aside 30 percent of apartments for formerly homeless families.
