Governor Kathy Hochul today announced construction is underway to create 53 new homes across Rochester’s Beechwood neighborhood. The $27 million scattered site development involves the demolition of obsolete properties operated by the Rochester Housing Authority and the substantial rehabilitation of others to create homes across 25 separate locations.  

“The work beginning today will invest millions into the revitalization of the Beechwood neighborhood by creating and preserving urgently-needed housing opportunities in the city,” Governor Hochul said.  “My administration remains committed to finding solutions to the state’s housing crisis that will provide New Yorkers with affordable, energy-efficient homes and enhance neighborhoods for existing residents and future generations.”  

The development complements Governor Hochul's $25 billion comprehensive Housing Plan that will create or preserve 100,000 affordable homes across New York, including 10,000 with support services for vulnerable populations, plus the electrification of an additional 50,000 homes.
