Governor Kathy Hochul today announced the completion of rehabilitation work at East Buffalo’s former Public School 78, transforming the vacant building into 46 affordable apartments and space for community programs and services. All of the homes in the $19 million Olympic Avenue Apartments development will be available to low-income households, with eight of the units set aside for disabled individuals who will have access to on-site support services. Governor Hochul broke ground on the project in 2022.
“This project exemplifies New York’s creativity in transforming underutilized properties into much-needed homes,” Governor Hochul said. “Our ongoing investments in East Buffalo are improving affordability, strengthening our communities and increasing housing opportunities for all.”
