  1. The old timer in the neighborhood mostly don’t make this kind of money. The more affluent people moving in the harder to qualify. So, in reality is not affordable for the low income Keep dreaming.

  2. This is such crap
    Not affordable Housing
    So tired of all upscale housing is geared to
    Segregation n privilege

  3. Brooklyn is becoming the Newest Manhattan. I was surprised the monthly rent didn’t go up to $4000 to $5000 monthly. It’s all too much glass this is perhaps why.

  4. Brooklyn becoming the Newest Manhattan. I am surprised the monthly rentals weren’t as high as Manhattan high end rentals. The four to five thousand dollars a month rent. I guess this is because in the design they used way too much glass. Not enough wall space.

  5. To the guy that said “just leave.” Not sure how colonialism-coded you sound. Oof.

  6. These apt are still too high. I know you don’t care about us, plus you’re getting the tax break up your;s
