On November 15, 2006, the Land-Use Committee for Community Board 7 discussed the West Side Federation of Senior and Supportive Housing application regarding the Department of Housing & Preservation’s (HPD) application to the City Council for the disposition of city-owned properties at 44 West 87 Street and 208 West 84 Street. This presentation supported designating these properties as “urban development action area projects” (UDAAP), specifically to be used for low-income/affordable housing. In December 2006, Community Board 7 passed a resolution supporting this designation.

In a November 6, 2006 letter, HPD encouraged the City Council to support these actions, and in December, 2006, the Council voted its approval. The tentative schedule for both projects is approximately 18 months from closing to completion of construction.

Tenants indicate that they have heard that leases will not be renewed and that an application will be filed with DHCR to allow demolishing of both brownstones, 508 and 510 West End Avenue. If the NYS Division of Housing and Community Renewal approves the application, both buildings can be demolished and others can be put up in their place. Both buildings have 4 flights and 10 residential units.

The current rent stabilized tenants of 508 and 510 West End Avenue are not prepared to leave their apartments. Members of the West End Preservation Society support the tenants, and advocate keeping and maintaining the two brownstones as they exist today.

The brownstones were recently purchased by Sackman Enterprises.
