 Marcello Manor - This New Destiny-owned
site in the northwest Bronx will be developed as service-enriched
affordable rental housing. A nine-story, 39,000 square-foot
building with 38 units will include program offices,
community and computer rooms and a landscaped backyard.
Half of the units will be set aside for low-income
domestic violence survivors coming out of shelter and
the remainder will be available to low-income working
households.
New Destiny will use “green” energy-conserving
and sustainable materials such as bamboo flooring,
low-E glass, bi-level lighting on motion sensors,
Energy Starr appliances and other innovative design
elements in the project. New York State has awarded
New Destiny $5 million in Low Income Housing Credits
and $3.7 million through the NYS Homeless Housing
and Assistance Program. Additional awards include
$1.6 million by New York City and $250,000 from Foundations
and individual donors. The total development cost will
be approximately $10 million.
Construction began in January 2007.
New Destiny is currently accepting applications for Marcello Manor which will serve both the general public and domestic violence survivors in shelter.
