WSFSSH at West 108 opened its doors in 2021 and is now home to over 250 low-income seniors and families in Manhattan Valley. Join Jenna Breines, WSFSSH Real Estate Development Director, and Shefali Sanghvi, Associate Principal, Director of Sustainability at Dattner Architects, for a tour of this building that offers permanent supportive housing for formerly homeless seniors, affordable housing for families, and also houses Valley Lodge, a transitional shelter that has served homeless seniors at this location since 1988. WSFSSH at West 108th is also home to a Federally Qualified Health Center, the Central Park Medical unit ambulances, provides meeting spaces for community organizations.
