another sad joke to call this affordable housing.
This is INCOME LINKED housing for upper income people only and not affordable to low income people.
We have a housing crisis for low and middle income people in NYC
The multi millionaire developer took advantage of 421A to get a NyS taxpayer subsidy to build this crap.

Oy Hershel. Why didn’t you just match the architecture of the building on the right – buff brick, double hung windows of good proportions, a small amount of classical detailing….and you would have had a decent building instead of the terrible building you have placed on G-d’s earth!
