Cortland
Crown Homes consists of 30 units of scattered site quality affordable rental
housing in a critical mass that were substantially rehabilitated and newly
constructed along the City of Cortland's South Main Street gateway. The
project was part of the City of Cortland's comprehensive revitalization plan to
respond to a priority need for providing quality affordable housing. The
Cortland Crown Homes development continues to have a lasting positive impact on
the city.
Six substandard buildings were substantially rehabilitated and
4 buildings were demolished with 2 additional newly constructed buildings.
This neighborhood revitalization effort has and will continue to change the
streetscape of the western side of the South Main Street neighborhood.
This project provided the South Main Street Gateway in the City of Cortland a
much needed facelift, reversed deteriorating economic conditions and provided
economic stability for the neighborhood.
About The
Project
An application
for funding was submitted in early 2006 to the Department of Housing and
Community Renewal (DHCR) for this neighborhood revitalization project and the
award was announced in August. Construction of the project was completed in fall
2008 and each of the buildings are fully occupied.
