{{Redirect-distinguish|Samuel Gompers Houses|Samuel Gompers House}}Samuel Gompers Houses, also known as Gompers Houses, is a public housing development built and maintained by the New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) on the Lower East Side of Manhattan on Pitt Street between Delancey and Stanton Streets.[1] The development is named after Samuel Gompers (1850–1924), an Englishman who immigrated to the United States in 1863, where he was a cigar maker, labor unionist, and workers' rights activist, who founded an organization that would eventually become the American Federation of Labor.[1][2] He was also the first president of the American Federation of Labor, serving from 1886 to 1924.[3]

Gompers Houses is composed of two 20-story buildings with 474 apartments that house approximately 1,116 people.[1] It is built on a {{convert|3.7|acres|sqm}} site bordered by Stanton Street to the north, Columbia Street to the east, Delancey Street to the south, and Pitt Street to the west.[1] Baruch Houses lie to the east.

Gompers Houses was completed April 30, 1964.[1] The development was designed by Lama, Proskauer, & Prober.[4] The relatively high cost of land for the Gompers Houses development, $13 per square foot, forced the New York City Housing Authority to build twenty story towers rather than the preferred six story buildings.[5] As with many of the housing projects built on the Lower East Side in the 1950s and 1960s, Gompers Houses is built in the "tower in the park" style.[6]

The development is consolidated with Rafael Hernandez Houses, Lower East Side I Infill, and Max Meltzer Tower.[1]

Minerva Montez is the Resident Association President for Gompers Houses.[7]
