homeowners. The new six story boutique residence is slated for a summer of 2017 occupancy. Units boast full floor through plans featuring two bedrooms, two baths, balconies, roof top deck and stainless steel appli- ances. Baldwin Park’s General Contractor is a Harlem based certified MBE Company that has been actively involved in the construction industry for the past 17 years. Robert Horsford , president of APEX Building Group shared “Apex Building Group is proud to have this opportunity to be a
part of Ms. McSween’s team bringing to reality her vision of modern living in Harlem.” Baldwin Park is projected to create approximately 40 new jobs, spanning two years. Financing for the project was provided by New Jersey based direct lender, the 100 Mile Fund managed by Procida Funding & Advisors, LLC . Over the last year Procida has been quite vocal about the finance community being misguided by throwing billions at mega luxury towers for the super-rich. “What really needs to be done with all the pension money in private equity is to re- build our inner cities. A minor- ity woman contractor building what I consider contemporary housing in Harlem is doing exactly what I have said the finance community needs to focus on. When I saw only one vacant lot, on a pretty street, near a park in a cute nook of Harlem coupled with her Bottomline Construction and Development team I jumped at the opportunity to be a part of this project,” said William Procida . McSween established Bottom Line Construction & Develop- ment in 2010 as its sole prin- cipal following the most recent economic crisis. BLCD has worked on several permitted construction projects through- out the five boroughs involving design, renovations, structural work, carpentry, plumbing and electrical. As a direct de- scendant of Harlem natives the Baldwin Park project is a special professional endeavor, Ms. McSween boasts “I wanted to contribute to the develop- ment and beautification of my community and Baldwin Park is my vision come to life.” Alexis McSween brings over eighteen years of practical and formal experience to Bottom Line Construction & Develop- ment. She has promoted a com- pany culture based on her own high standards of persever- ance, teamwork and a unique talent of forming successful collaborations. Ms. McSween transitioned into construction and development from a back- ground as a Registered Nurse and FDNY EMT when she earned a Bachelor’s degree in Organizational Management, and a Masters of Science in Real Estate Development with a minor in Construction Man- agement from NY University’s Shack Real Estate Institute. n
