History

This housing project was built between 1955 to 1956 along with PS 59. [3] It was named after Sumner Avenue, the north-south street that runs through the middle of the complex, which originally got its name from Charles Sumner and was renamed after Marcus Garvey in 1986. [2] [3] [4] The housing project was designed by architect Gustave W. Iser for about $16.6M. [5]

In 2024, a new 11-story mixed-use building providing affordable housing for seniors opened at the complex, which is called Atrium at Sumner and was designed by the architecture firm of Studio Libeskind. [6] The project was an infill development. [7]
