What do we know about what NYCHA is doing or proposing here?

In its FY20 Draft Plan, NYCHA said,

"Howard Houses, Brooklyn – NYCHA intends to dispose of approximately 15,000 square feet of surplus development rights through a zoning lot merger. The proposed land sale and TDR [Transfer of Development Rights] will facilitate an affordable housing development and generate revenue for NYCHA. NYCHA intends to submit a Section 18 application in 2019 prior to publication of the Final 2020 Annual Plan."
