About the Agency: The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) oversees housing standards across all 3.7 million homes in New York City.
As the nation’s largest municipal housing agency, HPD is responsible for building and preserving affordable housing, protecting tenants from harassment and displacement, and holding landlords accountable across the five boroughs. Under Commissioner Dina Levy and the Mamdani Administration, HPD is pursuing an ambitious housing agenda focused on the needs of New York’s tenants. With a broad set of tools including standards enforcement, tenant resources, and the creation of new affordable housing, HPD is committed to making New York City a more affordable place for renters and homeowners alike.
Your Team: The Office of Development (OOD) leads the agency’s effort to create and preserve affordable housing in collaboration with other HPD offices as well as other city, state and federal agencies. The OOD is comprised of eight divisions that administer a range of programs. These divisions include Portfolio Management & Conversions, New Construction Finance, Special Needs Housing, Building and Land Development Services (BLDS), Homeownership Opportunities and Preservation, Preservation Finance, Compliance and Enforcement, and Housing Incentives.
The Division of Portfolio Management & Conversions manages development projects after closing with an initial loan to ensure adherence to program and accounting requirements, conversion of construction loans to permanent financing, deployment of rental assistance to tenants prior to project stabilization, and timely completion of these HPD-assisted projects. The division administers multiple programs including Conversions & Rental Assistance, Requisitions, and Construction Monitoring & Completions. These programs facilitate the financial and physical viability, as well as affordability of privately-owned residential buildings throughout New York City. The Division plays a key role in implementation and successful completion housing projects originating from loan programs throughout HPD’s Office of Development.
Your Impact: The Construction & Completions unit is responsible for monitoring the construction of HPD funded affordable housing projects to track and report on construction progress, and to identify, troubleshoot, and resolve significant construction and completion issues that could adversely impact the project, project stakeholders and residents, and/or HPD’s ability to achieve its mission or meet its targets. The unit also assists the Requisions unit to resolve delays and processing issues that could delay the processing of construction requisitions and change orders in a timely manner. In addition, it assists the Conversions program in supporting the timely resolution of issues that might hinder projects’ ability to convert to permanent financing under budget. Finally, the unit actively manages and updates trackers with data regarding all HPD projects between the stages of origination and transition to Asset Management in order to assist leadership in setting targets for completions, in tracking agency progress toward those targets, and in identifying and problem-solving common issues that challenge projects’ ability to complete on time and under budget.
Your Role: As a Project Manager, you will have a portfolio of affordable housing construction and conversion projects you will monitor. For those projects, you will identify construction and completion-related problems that could adversely affect the project’s successful and timely completion by working with: the building engineers, architects and inspectors in BLDS, HPD loan program teams, owners and owner agents; contractors; lenders; and other external and internal partners as required. You will track and report on your findings to the Division and to Office. You will send correspondence and/or communicate with project partners at specific construction milestones to remind partners of current and upcoming obligations. You will also assist with requisitions and construction completion tracking, as well as with tracking and ensuring a subset of projects’ achievement of required milestones for their conversion from construction loans to permanent financing.
Your Responsibilities: The Project Manager will identify construction related problems that could adversely affect project stakeholders, or delay construction and completion, and then creatively problem-solve and resolve those issues within the unique constraints of each project. You will track and report findings to the Division, and lead recurring and ad-hoc meetings with a variety of internal and external stakeholders.
