PARKHILL AFFORDABLE HOUSING COMPLEX COMPLETES $12M RENOVATION

NEW YORK CITY — A $12 million renovation of the Parkhill Affordable Housing Complex at 260 Park Hill Ave. is complete. Parkhill, located between Park Hill and Osgood avenues, comprises eight buildings and is the largest affordable housing complex in Staten Island. It is home to 3,000 low-income residents. From 1998 to 2002, the owners completed $10 million in upgrades to the property utilizing funding from HUD and Freddie Mac's affordable housing program. Unithree, the new owner, then invested $12 million in a second round of renovations undertaken in two phases. The renovations include the installation of new kitchens, the construction of the Barack Obama Computer Center, upgrades to the apartment interiors and common areas and window replacements.
