Lieber said that the $800 million climate resiliency project has begun with the awarding of a contract for the design of an estimated $270 million project to protect the Hudson Line from Spuyten Duyvil in the Bronx to Hastings-on-Hudson. He said that segment of track has experienced repeated impacts from storms. He said that assets that are in poor condition such as culverts and retaining walls will be repaired and expanded along with shoreline structure rehabilitation and implementing flood protection measures.

Developed by nonprofit organization Comunilife, the newly constructed 10-story building includes 83 affordable apartments for older adults, including 50 supportive homes for New York seniors that were experiencing homelessness. Under Governor Hochul’s leadership, New York State Homes and Community Renewal (HCR) has created or preserved over 11,000 affordable homes in the Bronx. El Hogar Residence continues this effort and is part of the Governor’s $25 billion five-year Housing Plan, which is on track to create or preserve 100,000 affordable homes statewide.
