Ascendant Neighborhood Development is thrilled to celebrate our 35th Anniversary Legacy Fundraising Drive with our valued community partners and supporters. As a non-profit affordable housing developer, we have served East Harlem and the greater Northern Manhattan community since our founding in 1988 with a deep commitment to sustainability, adaptive reuse, and preservation.

Our collaboration with community preservation partners has been critical to our success in identifying and protecting landmarks in the neighborhood through advocacy and community outreach, recognizing the importance of maintaining the unique character and charm of the area. Together, we actively work to promote sustainable preservation in our development and revitalization efforts. Our recent recognition with two Excellence in Preservation awards in 2022 is a testament to the importance of involving the community in the preservation process, and we are grateful for our preservation-specific sponsors who have joined us in this important work.

We warmly invite community supporters like you to join us in celebrating this important work and help make a lasting impact on our community. With your generous donation, we can continue to protect and celebrate the rich cultural and architectural heritage of East Harlem and greater Northern Manhattan.
