One bedroom, open kitchen, huge bathroom, wash and dryer in the apartment, and if that wasn't enough, a balcony with a view of the Hudson River. Its months of paperwork and back and forth, but well worth it.
Congratulations! You truly did win the lottery.

Sweet, congrats!!!!!!!!!
It's good to hear good stories from this whole process.

I am totally jealous of the Hudson River view. The Jersey Gold coast is gorgeous. (I grew up there). You would never have thought that new yorkers in those high rises wanted to see that, but nice!!

Congrats. Not only is it nice to hear you got an apt but its nice to hear how thankful you are. Many people feel owed affordable housing and no one is.

Amen, brother. My aunt told me last week at a family dinner that the lord will always provide. Yes, things might look grim, and sometimes we even question if our creator has abandoned us, but everything is a trial. From ppl to life events. At the very end he comes and saves us from the dilemma. We might look abandoned in the beginning or middle, but at the end he's always there to see our result in one form or another. He was alone in the beginning, so he made us so that we can all be family, socialize, and to see who is naughty or nice. (one last message kept out to honor equality).

Just don't tell anyone that you're "Pancheto" when you move in. Stay anonymous, so that you stay treated equally by your fellow peers. One trial ends, another opens, so stay sharp.

Once again, congratulations, buddy. May the new chapter of your life open, so that you can continue saving the world in your own way.

Lastly, if you see any rare "Pokemon Go" 10km egg Pokemon pop-up pm me, i'd like to add it to my personal data. (just in case if you play it, lol; my mom has been working @ 57th for around 20 yrs, so if you see anything rare i can go with her one morning, stay for a bit, and catch it...mostly looking for a "Lapras" by the piers, because I need more candies for 2k CP).

Bon voyage.

Just wanted to say that I heard from them. I had a low lottery # 3,XXX but was rejected because my income is just a couple hundred dollars below the minimum. Congrads to everyone who got in.

How long did it take them to send a rejection from the day of the interview?
I had an interview a month ago but I heard nothing...

Congrads Pancheto,
Can you please tell how long does it take to get an interview once you submitted all required documents? I have been waiting almost 2 months.
Thank you.
