All I know is they are situated in Brownsville, Brooklyn between Rockaway and Mother Gaston, north of Sutter Ave. Three high rise buildings (don't know exactly how many floors), they are public housing (managed by the nycha). I never stepped a foot there but just according to the location and the surroundings developments (Brownsville/Van Dyke pjs) it would be very surprising if LH houses happened to be like heaven...

They're in Brownsville, so I'm pretty sure they're up there with some of the worst projects in the city.

Fact is you ear less of Langston Hugues than Brownsville, Seth Low or Tilden but imo it doesn't mean that they are safe.

It is the best for you to go there and do an onsite survey. You can get real first hand info from the people in and out of the building. Good Luck.
