One hundred new homes will be built in the first new home building project in the neighborhood in more than 50 years.

"What we want to do is not only provide home ownership opportunities for families but we want to really start supporting this neighborhood," says says executive director Arthur Woodward.

The Josana Neighborhood Improvement Project is one of the biggest projects Habitat for Humanity has sponsored in Rochester.
