Haven Green Development to Shift From Nolita’s Elizabeth Street Garden to Vacant LES Site
Plans have been scrapped for Haven Green, a 123-unit affordable senior housing development at the Elizabeth Street Garden in Nolita, Manhattan, under a legal settlement that shifts the project to a city-owned lot on the Lower East Side. The agreement ends the November 2025 lawsuit brought against the city by developers Pennrose, RiseBoro Community Partnership, and Habitat for Humanity New York City and Westchester, which formally discontinued the case on Thursday. Under the settlement, the development team will acquire the 15,500-square-foot city-owned lot at 22 Suffolk Street and build more than 180 affordable homes. The Elizabeth Street Garden will remain preserved as parkland on its 20,000-square-foot parcel between Prince and Spring Streets.
