It is great that the application is back it was gone for a while.

The links are working and you could also submit the application now.

If you are new to the OLD Housing Connect, you will need to create a profile, which is really short, basically your name and address.

If you have used the site before, click on "Edit Profile" and make sure it's correct.

Best of luck to us all!

Also if your address changed within selection process after they post the log number you can call the development and they will modify your address.

how fast do you think they move thru 400-person waitlist?

[macnyc2003]

The one-bedroom list moves the fastest. A couple of years ago I read the complex has about 70 one-bedroom vacancies a year. (Penn South is taking 600 names for the one-bedroom list.)

This is complicated by the fact that there are about 200 people still on the one-bedroom wait list from prior years.

The studio list moves much more slowly, and the two-bedroom list (not being opened at present) even more slowly.

Are the lists publicly available?

Question:

I have two kids at home, both in their early 20s. I had them set up Housing Connect (old) accounts to sign up for the Penn South lottery. I think this makes sense since, if they are lucky enough to make the list, they wont be called for several years.

Is this allowed? Any thoughts?
