City grants Warbasse Houses $2.4 million for Sandy repairs
A Coney Island housing complex that sustained extensive damage in Superstorm Sandy nearly four years ago is getting city help in its effort to recover.
Councilmember Mark Treyger and New York City Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) Commissioner Vicki Been recently announced that Amalgamated Warbasse Houses has been awarded a $2.4 million HPD grant to fund the cost of emergency repairs and resiliency work in the wake of Superstorm Sandy.
The funds will go toward expenditures not covered by insurance benefits.
