Troy Portfolio Preservation Project
MDG is the Troy Housing Authority’s co-developer partner for the rehabilitation of five apartment complexes in Troy, New York: Griswold Heights Apartments, Corliss Park Apartments, Grand Street Apartments, Margaret W. Phelan Apartments, and Catherine M. Sweeney Apartments. Collectively the Troy Portfolio Preservation Project, the five separate properties total 733 units of federally subsidized public housing, 726 of which were part of Troy Housing Authority’s Non-Debt RAD conversion. The additional 7 units are being constructed through this rehabilitation and will be provided by the Housing Authority’s project-based vouchers.
Albany County Land Bank
In partnership with the Albany County Land Bank and TRC, an engineering, consulting, and construction management firm, MDG is working to complete a neighborhood redevelopment program using vacant lots in Albany’s South End neighborhood for affordable housing, including both rental and homeownership options. The development team has identified two tracts of vacant properties in the South End neighborhood within ACLBC’s portfolio — Liebel Street and Broad Street — on which nine townhomes will be developed on vacant lots, within Qualified Census Tracts and Opportunity Zones as part of this larger community redevelopment plan. The South End of Albany is a neighborhood that was redlined throughout the mid-20th century and through the 21st resulting in disinvestment by governmental and private interests, and this project will support the City’s goal to to address inequalities in historically disinvested neighborhoods and those that were hit the hardest by Covid-19.
