1345 Rogers Avenue

1345 Rogers Avenue is an 8-story affordable rental building located in the East Flatbush section of Brooklyn. The Doe Fund Inc. constructed and currently manages the 116 units of supportive and affordable housing. The Doe Fund is a nonprofit organization that provides paid transitional work, housing, educational opportunities, counseling, and career training to people with histories of homelessness, incarceration, and substance abuse.

The project was financed through a combination of financing, in part, through the issuance of tax-exempt bonds from the New York City Housing Development Corporation and the sale of federal low-income housing tax credits and loans from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development Supportive Housing Loan Program and the Homeless Housing Assistance Corporation.
