Stonewall House, the first affordable LGBTQ-friendly senior housing complex in New York City, opened in 2019 in Brooklyn.

AKRF provided civil engineering, performed Phase I due diligence services, and led NEPA, SEQRA, and CEQR environmental reviews for disposition and redevelopment of the New York City Housing Authority property. The project’s NEPA review required noise attenuation and site remediation services along with consultation with the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation.

The 17-story, 124,000-square-foot building developed by BFC Partners and designed by Marvel contains 145 units of affordable housing for seniors and a 6,800-square-foot SAGE Center at street level.
