Details: Hamilton House, located just off Amsterdam Avenue on 73rd Street, was designed by the architectural firm of Schwartz & Gross and built in 1919 as a neo-Renaissance style hotel building. In its heyday, Hamilton House fit in beautifully with the style and atmosphere of Manhattan’s upper west side. But times changed and by the early 1970’s the Hamilton had become a notorious “welfare hotel.” When the city wanted to shut the building down, some fifty community groups and tenant leaders organized to save it for low-income people in the neighborhood. Then, when the owner wanted to turn it into luxury housing, community groups successfully lobbied the city to transfer ownership to Project FIND for senior housing. Cobbling together funding from the City of New York and later the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, Project FIND was able to secure this building as a permanent resource for affordable housing designated for older adults. Today, Hamilton House has 174 studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments for persons 62 years of age and older who earn less than 80% of Area Median Income, which as of 2021, must not exceed $66,880 for a single person or $76,400 for a couple.
