Damn this is one sad looking building
It’s what the Caliendo’s, Bricolage’s and Badaly’s do best… mutilate the streetscape with soulless, thoughtless utility brick human storage containers.
Sad indeed.
Did not know buildings have expressions. South bronx vicinity has been rebuilding and renovating buildings all over. Income requirements are over the
top.
I cannot believe the income needed for one of these apartments in a neighborhood that has to be all renovated every single Street. $63,000 a yearly income for a one-bedroom apartment I don’t know anybody who wants to get an affordable makes that kind of money. I am a bronxite and I remember the Bronx when it was the most beautiful Borough in New York City and now it is,Ugly and dirty. The only good thing about it is the shopping on Arthur Avenue they’ve been there for a hundred years.
This is a bit over the typical priced apartment in the Bronx. Should be between 1600- 1700 to make it a truly affordable apartment for the borough. All these “affordable” buildings opening in the outer boroughs only catering to Manahatinites or a certain segment of the population. Try lowering it closer to NYC rental assistance programs and then call it an affordable apartment

Seek help for your brain tumor.
I want application for 3 bedroom a have a.s. an I work my partner have s.s. and my grandson have s.s.my score is 750
This is a ridiculous expectation. Affordable housing is no longer affordable. Unrealistic and just brings in people with higher income and pushes out those who really need low income housing. When will this change. It’s getting worse!!!!
Would like to know how can I apply for and apartment in this building
How is 75.000 to $167.000 a year low income? Who determined that dolllar $$$ amount is low income? The people that is making $75.000 to 167.000 working are not coming to these areas! (The building will be either empty or turned into a city shelters!)
They are very nice apts.! ! I am disable on a fixed income looking for a two bedroom with lights & gas included!
