These rents are very high for a lottery . Studios for $2700 .lol
Should be $700
Tiny apartments.
This is Riverdale, so the rents match the neighborhood, which is about as upscale as it gets in The Bronx
These cannot be categorized as affordable housing. I know Riverdale is upscale as I worked there before I retired. I can never afford that. I would end up in a shelter or living in the streets.
Changed in the zoning laws with new construction will change everything for New Yorkers. The vacancy rate close to zero. Hopefully this will relief the housing crisis with pockets of low income housing to meet the needs of working class and low income working class New Yorkers.
This is not affordable, they need to changed that to expensive because not one working middle class new Yorker can afford that. This homelessness are getting worse because of these high rents.
