So to give you a summary of the work for this cluster, it will It will be a substantial rehab to address 38 Martinez, which has been vacant for quite some time.
0:13:26
And then there'll be a moderate rehab for the other three buildings, 1073 Utica, 639 East 87, and 996 East 46.
0:13:37
Just to give a little context, these buildings have are occupied for with families that have been there for a long time.
0:13:44
There has been a lot of conversation with residents, a lot of engagement in which they have expressed that they do not wanna be relocated for them.
0:13:55
They've lived their whole life.
0:13:56
It's their home So we change the scope and work around them to be able to keep them in place while we do the work.
0:14:05
That's what they want, and we'll we'll do it that way.
0:14:09
So, like, we're saying, it's 12 units across these four buildings.
0:14:13
And they were not changing the unit mix.
0:14:15
It will be 12 units of affordable housing after our renovations.
0:14:20
There's one commercial space at 1073 Utica, which will be also renovated for any new tenant to move there and then make it their own space based on their needs.
0:14:32
There's a 1062 cross square feet of residential space and 810 growth rate of commercials paid in total for these 4 buildings.
0:14:43
Existing tenants will be offered a preferential rate, rent to preserve their affordability.
0:14:49
That's really important for Manny and HPD, and will for the whole cluster, which is 14 buildings, will set a 15% set aside for formerly homeless individuals or families.
0:15:05
The scope of work, kind of the high level of what it includes, if we go to the next slide.
0:15:11
Please, will be roof replacement, facade work, window replacement, electrical upgrades, boiler replacement, and in unit repair, which focuses for the mod rehabs in new kitchens and new bathrooms as well as new flooring, painting, and you think that is needed so it looks and it is brand new.
0:15:39
The construction for the whole cluster, the 14 buildings is anticipated to last 27 months.
0:15:45
We are planning on doing it in two phases, though, because it's 14 buildings.
0:15:51
And that way, residents, it will take around 13 months for each phase.
0:15:58
Well, residents are some in place, some relocated.
