Capital Projects
A key priority of NoVo in Kingston is shepherding the timely completion of major capital projects in Midtown Kingston. While not required, NoVo pays taxes on all properties it owns. The information below outlines project descriptions as well as their current construction status (pre-development, design, construction, and complete). In addition, we are sharing information on construction projects supported by NoVo in Kingston but owned and operated by partners in the community.
Gentrification is an urgent issue; it would be a tragic and deep injustice if this community was changed beyond recognition by the forces at large that are driving up housing costs and prices and driving down affordability and availabilty. Our challenge has been how to support meaningful change in a particular neighborhood without those changes inadvertently contributing to those forces driving out the very people who were meant to benefit.
