[Monello]

I never realized that spending your entire adult life in a housing project was a possibility.

Castle Hill Houses is ranked the most dangerous housing project in the Bronx. 14 high rise buildings with over 2,000 units.

Whether she was fighting for repairs for the tenants of her NYCHA development or getting a new wheelchair for a senior in need, Roxy Reid was always busy helping people.

Reid was the tenant president of the Castle Hill Houses in the Bronx.

Monday night, Reid died from complications of COVID-19.

Reid lived at the Castle hill Houses for 45 years. Five years ago, she became tenant president. Her passion was always in helping people.

To help her family, visit their Gofundme.
