    NYCHA - Astoria Houses Heat Plan

    Uploaded by

    Colin Pearce
    Astoria Houses has 22 buildings and 1,104 apartments housing 2,942 residents, including 15% over age 62. The boilers are 29 years old and in poor condition, making it difficult to provide enough heat during cold spells. Recent investments have improved building management systems and made repairs. A mobile boiler has been installed to supplement the in-house boilers during outages, which have decreased in recent years. Alternate heated spaces are available if needed.
