Hey everyone, I just called the office. They told me they’re still working on the old list. The lady asked for my number which is below 60 and she said I’m a couple of years from being called. I got my letter last July for a studio, and sent my check a few day later. Now’s the waiting game.
Hopefully that means I’m only a year away since I got a number under 10

First, apologies, I confuse Ruppert and Rosalie Manning. The two Mitchell- Lamas are very near each other between 2nd and 3rd Aves., and have names starting with ‘R’. If you read my posts, they kind of apply to each place even if I have confused them.
If you walk in the other direction there is Carl Schurz Park with Gracie Mansion. Very nice and overlooking the East River, between 84th St and 90th St.

If someone at Ruppert told you there are about 25 more households left on the old list that is helpful info. Thank you.
If 25 is your own estimate that is nice too. A way to analyze such things can be to figure the maximum possible number of log#s ahead of your own. Then, we have to wonder how many of that maximum number are ‘deadbeats’ that never returned the application. Same for the new list, if you are log# 10, there is a maximum of 9 log#s ahead of you. (And possibly some veterans preference people). We don’t know how many of the 9 actually return the application and paid the fee. Also, some of the 9 might have lost interest while waiting. Good luck and good patience.
At some point we can hope thar Ruppert will reach out to you to say you are getting close. But even they don’t know, it could be that several log# don’t respond and others turn down a unit, then suddenly they are asking you.
