What is that first bathroom faucet?
Stop calling this “affordable housing”
This is ‘INCOME BASED HOUSING” and isn’t affordable to low income people but built for upper middle income and upper class people.
This isn’t affordable to the low income people of this neighborhood and is a SCAM and nothing but a tax giveaway and subsidy for greed rich developers. AMI is skewed because it includes the rich suburbs of Westchester county

GUESSER you are absolutely right! They should call it what it is, affordable housing for middle income families and up! Beautiful property, but they have no intention on using the subsidies they received to include real low income citizens! A TOTAL SHAM! NY State should be ashamed for allowing/promoting this!!!!
This is definitely NOT affordable housing. Good luck with that. GOODBYE.
Very intersting one bedroom apartmente for my wife and I I am senior.
I will love know price off two bedrooms or 3bedroom sincerely will be happy . Put in my application.
They need to redefine affordable.
What’s the price for a two bedrooms units for affordable income?
Very lntersting. For my family.
Where do I file an application?
It’s funny because the regular apartments are likely between 3k and 5k, which is ridiculous for bed stuy. Lived in the area for 26 years and I can’t afford an apartment in my own neighborhood.
