"Growing up in NYCHA was a blessing and a curse. It made me who I am today, but I've also seen how limited resources and poor housing conditions can take a toll on families. We want to do our part in changing that cycle."

"This project will rethink and reopen a vital neighborhood and ensure that local residents' voices are central to the process of change."
