High Rise Syracuse Apartments to Undergo $40 Million Renovation (PS; Moriarty)
The 305-unit Clinton Plaza Apartments will undergo a major renovation, the first since the subsidized housing development opened 45 years ago in downtown Syracuse, city officials said.
Mayor Stephanie Miner said Thursday the city has closed on $675,000 in financing for the project, enabling The Mullholland Group LLC, a Whitestone-based developer of multifamily housing, to acquire the building and perform $40 million in improvements.
"We are committed to providing our citizens with excellent, accessible housing choices, in downtown and throughout our city," Miner said in a statement. "This project is a significant step advancing that cause."
The $675,000 grant will come from the city's HOME program, using money awarded to the city by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The building also is receiving a property tax exemption through the Syracuse Industrial Development Agency.
