We know that housing is more than a place to live—it’s a pathway to stability, recovery, and stronger communities. Our Highbridge development in the Bronx is already delivering on that promise, even before a single resident moves in.
A new economic impact analysis shows that construction of Highbridge, which is being built with our partner Mega Contracting, has already contributed more than $23 million to the Bronx economy since work began in late 2024. That impact is being felt by hundreds of workers on site each day, including many from the surrounding community, earning family-sustaining wages and supporting their households. Local businesses, from restaurants and bodegas to suppliers, are seeing increased activity, with nearly $6 million already spent with Bronx-based vendors.
And this is just the beginning. When completed in 2027, Highbridge will bring more than 400 units of affordable, supportive, and transitional housing to the Bronx, alongside community space and on-site services that connect residents to care, job training, and long-term stability. The development will also create 100 full-time jobs. Highbridge reflects what we believe at our core: when we invest in people and communities, the impact is immediate and lasting.
