Public Housing Preservation Trust

The New York City Public Housing Preservation Trust (the Trust) is a government agency dedicated to renovating New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) properties to address much needed capital repairs.

The Trust undertakes work at developments only after residents of a development approve to join the Trust through a resident vote.  These properties remain 100% public. NYCHA continues to own, control, and manage the properties. 

The Trust is able to undertake these capital renovations because its structure allows it to access greater funding from the federal government and to complete faster, higher-quality renovations with improved procurement rules.
