Join the conversation about community and capital investment at your development made possible through PACT.
Your development has been selected to be a part of the Permanent Affordability Commitment Together (PACT) program. This means that your homes and community spaces will receive much needed renovations, you will have access to employment opportunities affiliated with the repairs and on-site social services will be enhanced.
Because this is your home and your community, we want your expertise to shape what PACT will do at your development. We’d like you to join us in a community planning process to design and envision your community spaces and provide critical feedback on any proposed upgrades for your home.
Through PACT, your development will be included in the federal Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) and convert to a more stable, federally funded program called Project-Based Section 8. This allows NYCHA to unlock funding to complete comprehensive repairs at your development, while also ensuring homes remain permanently affordable and residents have the same basic rights as they possess in the public housing program.
Once the property is converted to Project-Based Section 8, NYCHA will lease the land and buildings to the development partners, who will conduct the repairs, serve as the new on-site property manager, and provide enhanced social services and community programs.

October 2023- NYCHA, with guidance from resident leaders at Rangel Houses, has selected the PACT partners who will deliver more than $552 million in comprehensive repairs and upgrades to Rangel Houses, serve as the property manager, and provide enhanced social services and community programs.
Genesis Companies and the Community League of the Heights (CLOTH) will lead the project as co-developers; and Pinnacle City Living will be the property manager. In the coming months, a social service provider will be added to the team.
With the development team now in place, NYCHA will continue to work closely with residents, tenant association leaders, and other partners to create detailed rehabilitation, property management, and social services plans, as well as promote job opportunities and enhance resident amenities and programs.
The planning process will take approximately 12 to 18 months, and renovations are expected to begin in early 2025. In 2025, Progressive Management of NY will also take over from NYCHA as the property manager for your development. However, you will remain a NYCHA resident, as NYCHA will continue to own the land and buildings, determine your rent, and monitor the performance of all PACT partners.
