Euclid Hall

Originally constructed as luxury housing, Euclid Hall struggled to compete with more opulent apartments in the Upper West Side area. During World War II, it served as a residential hotel for affluent individuals. By 1989, it had deteriorated into a notorious site for crime. WSFSSH purchased the building with the aim of restoring it as safe and affordable single-room occupancy housing. When renovations began, the neighborhood initially expressed concerns and misinformation, but WSFSSH’s commitment to transparency and community involvement gradually shifted perceptions. Today Euclid Hall provides permanent housing and hosts WSFSSH administrative offices.
