Ascendant Neighborhood Development Corporation builds homes, engages community members, and partners with allies to raise up neighborhoods that provide stability and access to opportunity for all.Since its founding in 1988, Ascendant Neighborhood Development (AND) has strived to support the stability and growth of East and Central Harlem communities, advocate for preservation of affordable housing, and help thousands of New Yorkers live with dignity and respect. Over the last 30 years, AND has renovated and redeveloped 22 vacant and underutilized buildings to provide much-needed housing, built five new buildings - including three large buildings exclusively for low-income elders - and supported the transformation of entire blocks that had suffered from neglect and decay during widespread disinvestment in the 1980s and 1990s. Today, Harlem, northern Manhattan, and communities across New York City are reckoning with a new kind of housing challenge, as rapid increases in market-rate residential and commercial development propel speculation, drive up rents, and encourage tenant harassment and displacement. As we celebrate our 30th anniversary in 2018, AND is striving to meet these new challenges by rehabilitating and refinancing our existing buildings to preserve the quality and affordability of our residents' homes, starting new affordable and supportive projects that will expand the affordable housing opportunities we offer, and by advocating more broadly for deeply affordable homes, holistic approaches to community development that improve the health and wealth of residents, and the historic and housing preservation of the neighborhoods our organization serves.
