Christopher Marte

I would like to read this statement on behalf of Councilmember De La Rosa.

Christopher Marte

I'm proud to support the renovations and cooperative conversion of the 511 West 171st Street Cluster.

Christopher Marte

This project is an important investment in the future of northern Manhattan because it preserves affordability while creating meaningful opportunities for home ownership for working families.

Christopher Marte

It protects existing residents, opens the door for new first-time homeowners, and ensures these buildings remain well-maintained and financially sustainable for years to come.

Christopher Marte

Expanding access to affordable homeownership is one of the most effective ways we can help families build stability and generational wealth.

Christopher Marte

And I am pleased to support a project that reflects those values.

Christopher Marte

Great.

Christopher Marte

Well, now I call for a vote to approve these items I have described.
