Hi there. I recently learned about this building and saw the news about the finishing up. So it is true that the second tower will have units too? Do we know how many?

Yes! Funny enough, these buildings were supposed to be completed at the same time, but you know, Covid happened.

It’s supposed to include 55 units, referenced on page 63 of the below link. Not as many as this building, but still gives people who missed out a little bit of hope! For CB4 members this doc also includes past and other upcoming projects as well. I like to search for it through nyc.gov every year for updates.

606 West 30th Street:

40% AMI- 22
60% AMI- 22
100% AMI- 11

I second that. It’s a very comprehensive report on Community Board 4 Manhattan housing. ~160 pages with pictures, charts, tables, maps, building profiles, and so on. A good knowledge resource.

i hope this info is helpful. if you havent been around at night i actually recommend checking it out. in the summer theres a lot going on at hudson yards. they do free concerts, popup bars, free movies on the weekends etc. its a lot of fun even if you dont live in the area!

good luck!

Those "cop" cars on 33 st and 11th ave are actually Traffic Agent cars. The closest precinct is Midtown South on 35 street btwn 8 & 9 Ave.

Pretty sure I know the answer to this question but here goes: I currently live in CB4, but my lease ends in June and I might move to a different CB. At that moment I would have to update my address in HousingConnect and I would lose CB preference right?

You should evaluate if you a near to getting an offer with CB preference here. Start by examining how many units you qualify for. Also, if you log# is low enough you might be offered a unit AFTER the CB preference has been filled no matter where you’re live.

If you really think CB will be the difference you can explore extending you lease or taken a new lease where you are or elsewhere in CB which is a big place.

Thanks! I appreciate the thorough response. My log is 24,xxx. So not amazing, especially with how slow they seem to be moving. I think I have a good chance with CB but it seems like it’ll take several more months. I suppose they might still reach me in general pop, but not super likely.

I will definitely explore options to stay in CB4, but staying at my current place is not very likely.
