The Condos at Navy Green affordable housing lottery (Red Hook, Sterling: lease, mortgage)

[mollybloom]

Anyone hear anything? I didn't think there was a CB preference for this one. Could be weeks or months later before we know something...

I also applied for these condo's but the train station is really far and I don't drive. Good Luck to all those who get it!

You can always take the bus and transfer to the train.

Well another week has gone by. Starting to think I didn't win, but still holding out hope.

Thanks for sharing,

Did they tell you what your log# was?

Im just wondering if I email them would they have that documented.

Wow, thanks Sterling93 -- I'm so happy to have this information. BK_nurse2014, let us know if you write to them requesting log #! It sounds like they may not give this out, but maybe worth a try?

I am *shocked* at the low number of applicants for this -- I would have thought 20,000 people at a minimum would have applied, especially since the recent affordable housing in Hunter's Point, Queens, had something like 120,000 applicants.
Fingers crossed for all of us!

Thank you wenmen. I work in New Jersey so I would be taking the bus to the train to the path. It's a little too much for me to handle.

I believe it is a low number because it is not very convenient. The train station is a 15-18 min walk.
