Nehemiah Spring Creek Houses come to East New York

The Real Deal reports 2,200 new homes headed to East New York

Mayor Bloomberg broke ground on Thursday for a residential development in East New York that will eventually house up to 7,000 people. The 2,200 affordable homes will be a part of the Nehemiah Spring Creek Houses at Gateway Estates, a mixed-use project unfolding over 227 acres in the Brooklyn neighborhood.

Sales prices for the new single-family homes are expected to start at $158,300, and the first homes are expected to be finished by the end of 2007.
