Brooklyn Housing Authority

Brooklyn Housing Authority, doing business as Upper Village Apartments, is a non-profit housing authority based in Putnam, Connecticut, that operates as a prime recipient of federal housing grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office. The vendor receives recurring formula grants for public housing modernization, development, operations, and maintenance across a portfolio of 36 awards spanning twenty years of activity.

The organization's entire federal footprint consists of two recurring grant programs administered by HUD: the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFP) and the Public Housing Operating Fund (PH OpFund). Capital Fund grants support modernization, development, management improvements, and eligible capital activities including construction and acquisition of public housing units, governed under 24 CFR Part 905. The most recent Capital Fund award was issued May 13, 2025, with ultimate completion set for May 12, 2029. Operating Fund grants cover day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, administrative costs, routine and preventative maintenance, security, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service. The most recent Operating Fund award was issued January 1, 2026, with ultimate completion set for December 31, 2032. Both programs are formula grants, meaning awards are distributed to public housing agencies according to statutory formulas rather than through competitive procurement. Combined dollars obligated across all thirty-six awards total $1.2 million, reflecting the modest scale of this single-agency recipient portfolio.

Activity has remained flat over the past five years at two awards per year (2022 through 2026). Two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months — both formula grants from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office that will likely be reawarded on their existing schedules. Brooklyn Housing Authority operates exclusively as a prime recipient with no subcontractor or sub-recipient relationships in the source data, and serves only one federal customer: HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office. This vendor profile reflects a public housing agency managing its federally supported portfolio directly rather than a federal contractor engaged in competitive procurements.
