We’re thrilled to share that Habitat has officially closed on Phase One of the Marine Drive Apartments redevelopment in Buffalo, NY — paving the way for 254 new affordable homes along the city’s waterfront. This milestone launches a multi-phase plan that will ultimately replace 616 aging apartments with 700+ modern, mixed-income homes, all delivered through a build-first approach to ensure no current residents are displaced.

A huge thank-you to our incredible JV partners: Brian Heeger - Duvernay + Brooks LLC; Alex Carducci - Bridges Development Group, LLC.; Modesto Candelario, Buffalo Municipal Housing Authority. 

To our extended financing partners and project team whose expertise helped bring this closing across the finish line: SWBR, Christa Construction, LLC, Enterprise Community Investment, Inc., M&T Bank, and the New York State Housing Finance Agency/State of New York Mortgage Agency.

A special shoutout to our Habitat team — Charlton P. Hamer, Jeff Head, Norbert Glod and everyone who has worked tirelessly to champion this effort. Your leadership and commitment to the Marine Drive community shine through every step of the way. Here’s to breaking ground and moving Buffalo’s waterfront into its next chapter!
