An Army veteran who lost both arms and legs in Iraq received a special homecoming in Staten Island.
Volunteers presented Army Specialist Brendan Marrocco with the keys to his new home Saturday, designed especially for him.
The home is completely accessible with an elevator to get him upstairs and remote-controlled apppliances.
It was funded entirely by donations.
Marrocco was wounded when his truck was hit by an explosive device in Iraq back in 2009.
The 25-year-old said the new house will help restore his independence.
"Finally I can leave the hospital, institutional area and just go back to life," Marrocco said.

It took 10 months to build the two-story high-tech house.
