100 Gold Street

The 100 Gold Street redevelopment will provide much-needed mixed-income housing in the Financial District while delivering a new and improved older adult center and modern office space for critical City agencies.

Reimagining 100 Gold Street

Located near the iconic Brooklyn Bridge, 100 Gold Street sits in the heart of the Financial District, a bustling neighborhood close to major employers, schools, shopping, and cultural attractions. The existing Brutalist-style building, home to several City agencies—including the Department of Housing Preservation and Development—and Hamilton Madison House’s City Hall Older Adult Center, requires extensive repairs to continue serving civil servants and the public safely and effectively. The initial vision for this project includes:

• New and Improved Older Adult Center: Replacement of Hamilton Madison House’s City Hall Older Adult Center with an updated, purpose-built space that meets existing and future needs of the community—without any disruption in service
• Much-Needed Housing: Providing over 1,000 new units of mixed-income housing with affordable units
• Enhanced Public Realm: Improving the surrounding streetscape with inviting and attractive sidewalks, active ground floor uses, vibrant landscaping, and street furniture (e.g., benches, bike racks, public art)
• Modern Office Space for City Agencies: Supply badly needed modern, tailored office space for City agencies solving the City’s most critical problems—without any disruption in service

In response to the New York City’s housing crisis, on August 21, 2024, Mayor Adams signed Executive Order 43, directing the City to identify public land suitable for new housing development. Building on this momentum, the mayor announced in his 2025 State of the City address the ambitious plan to redevelop 100 Gold Street into a dynamic mixed-use project.
