As of November 28, 2023, your development is now part of the Project-Based Section 8 program, and has converted through NYCHA’s 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. Learn more about PACT by visiting NYCHA’s PACT webpage.

Reid & Park Rock Community Plan
NYCHA and the selected PACT partners – BRP Companies, Fairstead, and Urbane – worked closely with residents over the past several years to design every aspect of Reid & Park Rock’s transformation. To learn about the plans for the rehabilitation, property management, and social services at Reid & Park Rock, please view the Reid & Park Rock Community Plan in English and Spanish.
PACT Partner Selection
February 2022- NYCHA has identified the PACT partners who will deliver more than $360 million in comprehensive repairs and upgrades to Reid Apartments and Park Rock Consolidated, serve as the property manager, and provide enhanced social services and community programs.
BRP Companies, Urbane (both minority-owned business enterprises), and Fairstead will lead the project as co-developers; Fairstead will also serve as the general contractor and property manager. The Local Development Corporation of East New York will serve as a community engagement partner, and 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 you, your 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 2023. In 2023, Fairstead 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.
