Where we build

Our service area spans Albany, Rensselaer and southern Saratoga counties. Within this region, we prioritize our construction efforts within focus neighborhoods, which helps stabilize entire communities through responsible homeownership. Habitat is committed to inclusive community development. We believe that responsible homeownership plays a vital role in protecting neighborhoods from displacement, increasing resident autonomy and control, and encourages responsible urban growth.

Habitat has six homes under construction in Albany’s Arbor Hill neighborhood, 10 homes in pre-development in Albany’s Sheridan Hollow neighborhood and four homes in pre-development in North Central Troy. We are also acquiring property in Albany’s South End for future development.

Past projects

Past focus neighborhoods include North Albany, where we built 18 homes from 2003 to 2007, and South Troy, where we built 13 homes from 2012 to 2015, and one home in 2019. We’ve also built in Albany’s Arbor Hill, Delaware Ave and Park South neighborhoods; the Town of Guilderland; the City of Cohoes; Troy’s Eastside and The Hill neighborhoods; and the Village of Castleton.
