Featured Project: Seneca SRO

Seneca SRO

This $15 million project exemplifies both collaboration and creative financing that addresses a dire housing shortage in Buffalo, N.Y. Developed by two organizations with stellar track records -- DePaul Group and STEL -- in providing supportive housing for persons living with psychiatric disabilities and other special needs populations, the 75-unit Seneca SRO was built upon the former site of an asbestos-ridden bowling center, and it is one of the first projects to leverage tax credits and private debt with OMH funding.
