Cuddy & Feder Partner, Eon S. Nichols, secured IDA approval from the County of Westchester Industrial Development Agency for an innovative multi-family development in downtown White Plains. With approximately $537,033 in sales tax exemptions and an additional $152,700 in mortgage recording tax exemptions, the project at 8 Chester Avenue will be a four-story development comprising 74 units of workforce housing and 40 parking spaces. Nine of those units will be designated as affordable housing. The development will feature a rooftop deck, lounge, a bicycle storage room, and a laundry room.

Eon also obtained a Pilot for the development offering the developer reduced real property tax abatements for several years.

The need for workforce housing is a critical issue in many cities, and the project in White Plains addresses this need. By offering rental units that are significantly less expensive than other newly constructed apartments in the city, the project provides a valuable opportunity for renters who prioritize affordability over luxury amenities. This approach allows tenants to save thousands of dollars each year, which can have a significant impact on their overall financial stability.
