Agreement reached to convert Stony Run to affordable and workforce housing

“KINGSTON – Mayor Steven Noble has announced that he has finalized the regulatory agreement to convert the Stony Run apartment complex at 305 Hurley Avenue in Kingston to affordable and workforce housing.

Grassroots organization For the Many hailed the agreement, said Aaron Narraph Fernando.

“The reason workforce housing was created is because the landlords needed additional money repairs,” he said. “Unfortunately, they spent a lot of money on pretty frivolous things. They spent money on a pool house; they spent a lot of money on things the residents didn’t need, and they didn’t do essential repairs, so the workforce housing agreement would allow them to get money for repairs to fix up some of the apartments that have fallen into disrepair.””
