The project is a joint venture between Camber and its non-profit partner Harlem Congregations for Community Improvement, and the housing will be for seniors, according to Gropper, a principal at Camber Property who was formerly at L+M. Amenities will include outdoor recreation space and multiple community rooms.

Construction on the building should begin late in 2018 and finish late in 2020.

Last year, Camber made a pair of large Bronx purchases. The firm picked up the 11-building Stevenson Commons complex in July with Settlement Housing Fund for $70.9 million and buildings at 820 and 880 Thieriot Avenue in November with LIHC Investment Group and Belveron Partners for $19 million.
