Westhab, Inc.

Exciting news from the Village of Haverstraw! 🏡 Westhab is thrilled to announce that, alongside our Village partners, we've been awarded NYS Empire State Development Momentum Funds to build a new affordable housing development for Haverstraw! Thanks to Mayor Mike Kohut and the Village for their support and to Hope Knight, President, CEO, and Commissioner of Empire State Development, for championing community development. And this all wouldn't be possible without Governor Kathy Hochul prioritizing affordable housing in the Mid-Hudson region! Let's keep building better communities together. #AffordableHousing #CommunityDevelopment #NYSFunding #BuildingCommunities #ChangingLives 🏠👏
