440 Washington
Overview
440 Washington is a 200 unit building in Newark’s Central Ward. Initially built in the early 1970s under HUD’s 236 program, the building suffered from years of deferred maintenance. BRP devised a value-added strategy which included rehabilitation and financial restructuring to address the poor physical and financial state of the properties. Tenant in place construction began February 2018 and completed Fall 2019.
