The mission of CLOTH’s Housing Development Department is to preserve and develop the housing stock of Southern Washington Heights for low-income families. The majority of CLOTH’s development has been the rehabilitation of existing housing. CLOTH has recently expanded its’ activities to include new construction projects. CLOTH’s Healthy Housing Initiative has produced 77 units of “green” rental housing, which increases indoor air quality and reduces energy costs.

Since CLOTH's housing program began over 20 years ago, CLOTH has developed over 1,000 units of housing, and owns 300 units of affordable housing. CLOTH currently has many additional units of affordable housing in developmen.

All of CLOTH’s projects are marketed in accordance with HPD’s and HUD Fair Housing Guidelines. Contact 212.795.4779 to find out when applications will be available for the units currently in development.
