The Voices of Alben Duffie and Michael Swerdlow
Today, we welcome affordable housing developers Alben Duffie & Michael Swerdlow who are responsible for the Block 55 mixed-use development in Overtown. The property features 578 high-quality apartments for low-income seniors on top of 250,000 square feet of retail space and a parking garage. The entire retail space has been completely leased to some exciting retailers. I'm thrilled to see developments of this nature that continue to revive Overtown as the destination it was once known to be.
