  1. Well that’s….something

  2. Affordable for who? How many working class people who live in this area can actually afford this? If you’re making over $65000, you do not need affordable housing.

  3. Affordable housing for any one making 70,000 dollars a year or more is insane. Those making this kind of money can afford a regular apt without a lottery. I hope every landlord who has made it impossible for just the poor to live rots in hell. I hope God destroys everything you own. I decree this in Jesus’ name.

      Tell me where exactly in NYC a family of two making 70,000 can find an affordable apartment? Assume that’s for a two bedroom, as if the family was a parent and one child who needs their own room.

  4. This is possibly the ugliest new apartment building I’ve ever seen in the city. Bravo!
