Seniors housing developers compete for Global Award

trophy1 NEW YORK: The seventh entry for the seniors housing Global Awards 2016 has been received.

City officials broke ground Monday on the latest phase of a massive affordable housing complex on a former industrial site in Long Island City.

Hunter’s Point South II will feature 3,000 new apartments on some of the priciest real estate in New York City. But Mayor de Blasio said at least 60% of the units will be set aside for low, moderate and middle-income families and seniors.

The completed project — which includes several buildings under phase one — is expected to create 5,000 units of housing.
