There is another new Clairemont Robert Stern luxury building that just opened in Manhattan at W122nd and Clairmont Ave.
I don’t know of anyone who earns $100,000 and more is homeless. This income group have choices placed at their feet. Those of us working, earning below $50,000, know there’s pretty much nothing between us and a shelter or the streets.
Only a select minority can
afford the majority of housing that is going up
It’s ment to be this way
Who can afford the supposedly affordable
No one
Housing Connect is a joke
