I got a letter to view 2 2Br apartments.
17th choice. In October it was 27th
Hi Dreamernyc, I'm new to this forum but I wanted to share with you that I too received a letter on 5/10/19 to view (2) 2-Bedroom Apts. I'm currently #15th choice and I think I was 22 or 23 back in October 2018.
@SABAY - seems that the lottery 2BRs are all assigned to 'A' (from what I know) - which is the backside of the building facing SouthWest, the other 2BRs seem to be on each end.

For those of you who got the letters to view the apts. can you share what does the letter say beside ur position? So when did they ask the documents they needed? After u put in ur choice and u got picked?
The building finally got its CO and people are starting to move in. I went to an orientation last week and was allowed to view my unit. The building is new NEW so the laundry room isn’t finished yet, the PM said tenants should keep receiving mail at their current place or get a PO Box for awhile. Only cable/internet provider currently setup is Verizon at the moment. Only 6 tenants had moved in thus far when our group went to view units.
Building feels massive inside, super long hallways. Beautiful. Very modern. Microwave and dishwashers included.
I seriously went back and forth with whether I would take the unit though. I currently live in a lottery apartment and my current place is more aesthetically pleasing and efficient than the unit I was shown. I am in the highest AMI bracket for a single person and yet my unit appeared tiny. Small bedroom, small bedroom closet, box shaped living room and a view of another building across the street.
My current apartment has a very nice view, end of a hallway, L shaped living room space and large kitchen. My bedroom isn’t massive but I have a large double door walk-in closet and another smaller closet inside the room. Two additional closets outside the bedroom as well.
Tbh, if I had been offered an apartment on a higher floor with a better view, I probably would have went for it. I just wasn’t wowed. There were other families from lower AMI groups that showed me their units and they looked much bigger. Those families had views of only the inside/other side of the building but were much not spacious. Also met the super and he was lovely, very friendly. He also confirmed for me that certain units on the lower AMI lines are more spacious than those on the side facing the city.
I will be turning my unit down but best of luck to everyone else!
If any Penn South residents are reading... would you please shed some light on the safety/crime status around the area? Is it a safe neighborhood to walk around at night? Thanks
