Retrofit Bedford Stuyvesant | Pratt Center
A Model Block for Energy Efficiency
Brooklyn's Bedford Stuyvesant is one of the most historically rich and compelling neighborhoods in NYC. As a cultural center for Brooklyn's African American community, many of its residents are devoted to the community, reinvesting when their incomes rise, staying in the neighborhood over many generations and becoming homeowners – over 25 percent of neighborhood households own their homes. The neighborhood has a well-developed network of block, civic, faith and neighborhood associations including a unique collaboration, the Coalition for the Improvement of Bedford Stuyvesant, a partnership of 25 community-based social and economic development organizations.
