  • For the core 4,400 residents in St. Nicks Alliance buildings, property management services will continue with all due precautions to keep residents and staff safe. Accordingly, we are temporarily closing community rooms and making critical repairs to properties. We are distributing fact sheets about COVID-19 to all tenants with a new emergency contact line.

  • We are distributing specialized guidance to our 300+ supportive housing clients who are immunocompromised.

  • Our Community Preservation division that advises and advocates for tenants will provide case management by phone.


When St. Nicks Alliance was founded in 1975, our neighborhood was beset by landlord abandonment and arson. We organized neighborhood residents to create safe, affordable, and habitable housing. Today, the challenge has shifted to maintaining affordability amid gentrification and skyrocketing rents. We are committed to meeting today's challenges just as we met the challenges of the past.

As the developer of over 2,200 units of affordable housing, we've focused on this essential need throughout our 41-year history. Over 100 housing employees create and preserve housing, assist local residents, and manage more than 1,400 housing units.

St. Nicks Alliance is a steward for the housing and facility assets we have create for the community. We provide homes for over 4,500 low-income, moderate-income and special needs residents. We also provide housing services for 3,000 more households. The overall budget for St. Nicks Alliance's Housing Division is in excess of $8 million, plus an additional $10 million in property operations.

In addition to residential properties managed and developed, we own or operate four community facilities in North Brooklyn. These properties have a total area of 67,000 square feet and enable our programs to operate close to neighborhood residents.

Real Estate Development

Since our inception, St. Nicks Alliance has focused on the creation and preservation of housing, first starting with Jennings Hall in 1980. This senior housing development, with 150 units of affordable housing for low-income elderly Brooklynites, was one of the earliest HUD Section 202 projects in NYC following the revision of the federal program toward low-income residents in 1974. We also created the first project in New York City to utilize the Federal Low Income Housing Tax Credit Program – placing in service the 21 apartments of Union Court in 1989.

The 2,200 housing units created and preserved by St. Nicks Alliance address a wide variety of needs for low- and moderate-income residents in NYC. These projects include rental housing for low-income families, two- to three-family homes for moderate-income purchasers, limited equity coops for low-income households, and special needs rental housing for low-income elderly or formerly homeless families and singles.

Over the past eight years, St. Nicks Alliance has carried through an Affordable Preservation Initiative to refinance and renovate 28 buildings with more than 790 units of affordable housing using over $100 million in financing. Additionally, we are constructing projects which will create or preserve an additional 178 apartments with $64 million in financing.
