more bait and switch, a certain percentage of those units was supposed to be truly affordable originally, if iam correct over seen by 5th ave committee, so now it just more high priced apartments over seen by this group, more segregated housing policies in Brooklyn
That’s not affordable housing. People cannot afford these prices for a one bedroom or studio unit.
Yeah. It might be cheaper than what this kind of place would cost market rate but not much, if any, cheaper than a crappier appartement, the program should subsidize housing, not a fancier lifestyle imo..
affordability is relative. This type of lottery only increases the market-rate rent
If people can’t afford these apartments, they will remain unrented.
Let’s call it what it is: unaffordable housing.
Yet the total cost of the building was subsidized by tax payers. Why are we subsidizing market-rate aka unaffordable apts?
