6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.
Please join HDC for a tour of the “T Building,” an award-winning adaptive reuse that transformed the former Triboro Hospital For Tuberculosis at 82-41 Parsons Boulevard in Jamaica, Queens, into a residential building that holds 200 units of affordable and supportive housing with 20,000 square feet of amenities and community facilities.
This tour, led by Maggie Poxon, Senior Project Manager for Dunn Development, the affordable housing developer which completed the project, will take place both inside and outside the building and focus on how the building’s history informed its present use; how preservation tools like the Historic Preservation Tax Credit Program helped make the project possible; how the project team was able to retain and adapt the building’s historic features, and how current residents and community organizations are currently using the space.
This program is part of HDC’s 2025 Conference series, Challenges and Opportunities for Historic Affordable Housing.
$20
Accessibility Information:
This tour takes place on level ground, but may include an opportunity to view the building’s mechanicals, which requires using a steep set of stairs.
