Hurray!
Finally Affordable Studios
In Brooklyn
For Only $2924!
What a sad joke for the low income and middle income people of NYC to call this affordable housing.
This is INCOME LINKED housing and only available to the highest income earners when we are in the midst of a housing crisis.
This is a taxpayer subsidy for millionaire developers
421A is dead so this has stopped.

You have got to be kidding me with this rent
JULIA,
Try to get the correct spelling next time you choose to comment. Rent?
This is how RANT is spelled
Do you not agree to what i’m saying? Would be curious to hear what your reasons are
Guesser I really think Julia meant to spell rent, not rant. Congrats for dissing someone totally innocent who agreed with what you said…
My apologies Julia and Jim
I’m so used to people on this site ridiculing anything I say
So are you saying there should only be affordable housing for people with very low incomes? These rents are still quite a bit lower than market rate. You seem to propose that families that make say 100-150k a year should just move to the burbs and only poor people have a right for any type of subsidy in the city? Affordability is an issue for a lot of people….
Sjakie, I know right! And Bloomberg made an article saying how 100k in New York actually feels like only 36k. Poverty level is 30k and below if I correctly recall, but nonetheless demonstrates how far less your money goes in New York even with a six figure salary. So yes I would still call this affordable housing.
Ideally the whole system gets overhauled. There are millionaires living in stabilized units and this system for subsidized rent is also a mess.
Guesser
The reason why it got 421a because they laid the foundation while that terrible law was still active. And as proven time and time again, NYC affordable housing program is and was always a hoax and they were more focused on only making it affordable for stupid frivolous spending upper class hipsters in mind
They are building housing for the rich that don’t exist in NYC
The fact that so many commenters think that making 100-150k a year in NYC in 2023 makes one rich is the real joke. A little more than 30% in taxes is taken right of the top of that for starters. What’s left is literally just enough to pay rent and bills and MAYBE take one vacation a year. That salary is more like lower middle class these days.
Middle class people get overlooked too much in this country by the poor and the rich. Both of those groups get more subsidies, government assistance and tax breaks than the middle class. It’s the middle class that shouldering the whole dang system for ya’ll so stop whining when we get a few deserved perks once in a while. Also those rents are high for us too.
