This is fraudulent pricing . The average family makes under
$60,000 in that neighborhood . No one can afford $3000 for studio . It’s a horrible location with constant traffic . No teachers can afford these apartments in their first 15 years. Same for police officers and firemen.
Well being that it has a pool and a sauna (if you see the website) it’s not really made for teachers and such. Yeah traffic is bad there – but so it in much of Manhattan and near parts of Brooklyn. It’s NYC. A person who is moderately fit can walk to the entrance to Randalls Island for recreation. For places to eat and such – Alexander Ave is a moderate walk as well for anyone fit. Also Citibike is right on the corner where this building is. They can ride up to the Gateway Mall near 149th street (or to the subway on 138th if they aren’t fit).
Teachers deserve a pool and sauna . This is fraudulent pricing .
Nobody deserves a pool and sauna . We deserve what we are able to afford. That type of thinking ruined NYC in the past. I would like a guaranteed pension and lifetime healthcare like a public sector worker. I think I deserve it. But I don’t have that and neither do almost anyone I know who doesn’t work in the public sector or a union that has political power
We will give you a pool and sauna, and you will use it, or else!
Wow! 210k is not middle income! That s over 17k a month! Its skipping right over middle income like some teachers and bus drivers and police! Sooo basically NYC is kicking out the Civil Servants, making us move where it’s more affordable for us. Where our commute is longer and we’re not getting enough sleep but yet you trust us to preform our jobs properly. There should be programs where all civil servants get assistance of some sort to buy homes. So we can remain closer to the City since we’re the ones actually taking care of the city. To be much closer when disaster or bad weather arises. Don’t NYC need somebody to take care of the rich?
Lots of concern over who’s fit
you touched and replied on everything except income… I’m sure you understand the income bracket in that community she mentioned..but seemed more concerned about the pool and sauna
Why isn’t this housing program building apts with families and individuals who earn LESS than $70000 gross? Those New Yorkers are the ones in real need of help with housing. This program is a rip-off of taxpayers’ money.
Exactly what I was thinking also . These rental prices are crazy for that neighborhood.
Because we have a flaccid and anemic housing program both nationally and locally? Other societies would just have the government directly constructing affordable housing, you know… like we used to do, instead of these wildly complicated private partnerships using tax credits and complicated schemes to RARELY accomplish what should be accomplished through direct taxpayer investment.
I’ve been noticing this lately with affordable housing (the income) I would like someone to tell me how is this affordable. This is bull now a days 2 family income can’t qet up to the income that they ask I wish they would stop putting up these brand new buildings and calling them low income property because its lies and if you have a voucher you can’t get in because if you were making that kind of money you wouldn’t have a voucher I believe they are trying to push low income people out of the beautiful neighborhoods. This is such a shame.
Hi I was really interested this project because a great location no matter how much expensive it is I still need to be in that place because I like it please send me the application so I can apply it I need 3bed room me with my family alone independent contractor worker
