Odyssey House will break ground on construction of a 50-unit apartment building for men and women with special needs in East Harlem. The building will provide a supportive, independent living environment for individuals who have overcome many life challenges, including mental health problems and drug, alcohol and/or significant medical conditions.
The project was developed by Odyssey House with support from the New York State Office of Mental Health and the New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development. The building was designed by Urban Architectural Initiatives. Please see the attachment for an architectural rendering of the project.
