They're only mailing applications. It's stated on the original advertisement that applications will be sent via mail.
If you don't get a letter by next week, it's probably best to assume you weren't selected in the lottery.

So if you get a letter, you have a good chance of getting an apt depending on your number?
In my ML we're free to do any construction we want as long as we don't remove load bearing walls.
In terms of maintenance and such I can't fault that person who is doing the review. If something is going on that is that bad so as to cause water leaking from the ceiling, it's absolutely up to management to fix that. We had our ceiling cave in because of our upstairs neighbor leaving water on repeatedly and over a long period of time and management fixed it right away. We've had cracked bathroom tiles and they've fixed it. We've had peeling walls due to water damage and they've fixed it, etc. Anything that's that serious is usually taken care of by management.
I think "townhouses" might just mean one-bedrooms. I just walked past the building and there don't seem to be enough of these private two-story "townhouses" to justify a 300 person waitlist. I could be wrong, but it would be strange to not open the waitlist for other one bedrooms in the complex. The advertisement says "There will be a limit of 300 applicants drawn for each bedroom size from the supervised lottery." It might just be a quirky way to say one-bedroom. And It appears that (almost) all of the units have some sort of outdoor space. From Google Maps, it seems like there are 8 balconies per building per floor. The Penn South buildings are similar in size and have 8 or 9 units / floor with ~6 balconies / floor.
I'm on the Penn South (studio) and Village East (townhouse) wait lists. I'm not sure which would be better to live in.

If you received a letter, you can add yourself to the waiting list and become an applicant, as long as you meet the qualifying criteria for the lottery you were drawn for. This is for the waiting list to purchase an apartment. The "chance" depends on your own qualification for the apartment and waiting it out.

I personally do not like the area Village East is in but would take cheap rent anywhere in a heartbeat. I'm just not a "downtown" kind of girl. I'm on the wait list for York Hill which is in Yorkville/Upper East Side and that is much more my speed, as well as Independence House which is on the UWS.
I'm also on the list for Penn South and I'd much rather be in Chelsea than Alphabet City, but everyone is different! Out of all of them my preferred location is UES and I would 100% leave Penn South after moving in for York Hill.
Does anyone know how the log number impacts your wait time? I received a log number of 159 for a 2 bedroom. I know the deadline to submit the application is March 20th, but I’m curious if when I send it before then also impacts wait time. Is the log number your number in line?
