Did any of you guys apply? Thought I'd start off the discussion!

Wish I could but I don't make enough

.

I'd move to that area, building in a heartbeat.

Don't fret! There's a lot of new lotteries popping up every week that you may qualify for. Just check the housing connect website periodically!

Logs are out! mines is in the 5,XXX range. Good luck to anyone who applied!

I applied and my log is 1,xxx range but 50% goes to the community board. I don't know anything about that area and currently i live on the UWS I was hoping to find something near me. I'm not exactly sure what I would do if I was called in for an interview but I guess I have another 6+ months to decide considering how slow these things progress. Does anyone know anything about the area? Is the building even done yet?

Congrats on landing the interview! Did you have any preferences? My log is in the 5XXX range with no preferences and I haven't been contacted as yet.

I have community board preference.. I’m mostly interested in crossroads 1 plaza but will ride this one and 530 exterior until I get a definite answer from one. Hopefully they will be calling you soon for an interview, I literally received the email yesterday morning so there is still time for them to reach out. Does anyone know any other details about this particular development? Other than what is stated on the lottery page?

Currently at the interview site.. and no sign of the interviewers! My appointment was at 1030am and it’s now 1130. We have about 50 people here waiting to be seen. This is truly ridiculous, but begers can’t be choosers... #ThePoorManStruggle
