I noticed the other day that Manhattan Plaza is having a lottery for spots on its waiting list for studios and one bedrooms. It's on Housing Connect and closes Jan. 31.

The lottery is for CB 4 residents only, and there is a separate lottery for CB 4 seniors over age 62.

It's strange. There is no mention of the rents charged. Plus, it gives income limits to be eligible for Section 8 assistance. That's like $80,000 for a single person. I thought Section 8 was for low income!

Plus, I guess residents don't have to be performing artists anymore. I don't know when that requirement was dropped.

I guess if you live in CB 4 it doesn't hurt to apply!

Please, everyone. If you DON'T live in cb4 DO NOT APPLY. Let's not ruin chances for people who actually DO live there for affordable housing.

I would imagine this one might not get many responses as it's only for people in CB4.
