New York attorney general confirms IMPACCT Brooklyn takeover preserving 57 affordable apartments

The New York attorney general announced that IMPACCT Brooklyn would acquire and manage four Bedford-Stuyvesant buildings containing 57 affordable apartments after intervention in the former owner’s bankruptcy. The state said an attempted sale to a commercial purchaser had not followed required approval procedures. A $3 million state loan will finance IMPACCT’s acquisition, and New York City plans to support full rehabilitation of the buildings while affordability restrictions remain in place.
