Awesome! How long did it take to hear for the second round of documents?( 12 month rent payment or credit check) and maybe I ask your log number and AMI?
Hope you get an apartment! I’m so anxious to get one my AMI is 40% and log 2,6xx
they asked the first time for documents on 2/19/24 and the second round 3/21/24. La rubia, do you speak spanish? send me a DM
I was told that construction would be done by April, so it's interesting to hear June now.
I thought the pool looked HUGE when I saw it! Ha. My understanding was that the pool was $75 extra.
Good luck making your decision!

--The room wasn't very spacious, but was aesthetically pleasing with a lot of closet space, nice views of the water, a nice bathroom, and in-unit washer & dryer. The lobby, and building amenities are aesthetically impressive, but very much under construction. the garage is under construction as are the outdoor terrace spaces and some fixtures in miscellaneous hallways. Even 1 elevator we took at one point still rendered exposed materials needing to be finished and a questionable response time to button prompt (I actually considered that my touring party might get stuck on the elevator mid-tour). I was told that the construction should be completed by June, but these are not huge hindrances to be honest. However, they are contributing to the costs and wouldn't be able to really be enjoyed until June allegedly. The pool is a 3 lane pool that is relatively small and shallow the entire way (still a nice amenity, but you'll add $250 to your monthly for access). The gym was impressive, but small. The sauna/spa was very small especially for the amount of apartments within these buildings. The mail/package room was very impressive. All in all, this location feels a little like a sham at first, but within a year I do think this will be an amazing location neighborhood wise (with patience). Behind the building is the appearance of a vacant lot that is intended to become a park within a year.
*My opinion: I am in the 80% AMI and was shown a 100% AMI Studio. The rent communicated while viewing didn't match my AMI's and I was told to inquire with my e-mail contact at the property managing office to investigate that. I did and was told that due to my income docs., I qualify for a 100% AMI Unit. My contact even sent me my literal income as per the documents submitted and this number STILL didn't put me in the 100% AMI. I reached out to HPD to get a second perspective and even they responded that this isn't supposed to happen. Literally, while talking to HPD, i receive an explanation from the contact saying that all 80% AMI studios & 1-bedrooms were given to people with CB preference. So, I'm fortunate to be offered a place I don't qualify for and I, as a NYC native, love other natives getting priority, but I do recommend exercising caution as it seems they care more about filling rooms than our ability to live their practically.*
I am currently still mulling over the decision, intend to respond to them soon and have updated the spread sheet thus far. I'll update this again at that point. Wishing you all the best!
I'm also in the process with Sven! but I'm not so interested because the 3 rooms don't have a living room! can you believe it? but I continue with the process in case that something goes wrong with Tower 77, but Sven is moving fast in the process, let see!
How is that possible? What is the layout?! 3 bedrooms with a kitchen and somehow no living room? The one bedroom I was offered has a long hallway leading to one big room that is an open space kitchen/living room, one bedroom, and one bathroom.

I've seen these kinds of layouts before. They basically just put up a wall w/a door where the living room would be. It's like a flex layout except it's a real not a flex wall.

My application has been stuck in review with HPD for just over a week. I checked in to see if my contact at AFNY could tell me anything but she didn't have an update. So close but yet so far.
We are still deep in the process but from what I can see we will have high AMI units available when we get to the general population. Low AMI studios also.
Hello good afternoon I tried to dm you but it wasn’t working still a lil unfamiliar but wanted to know do you know how many 3 bedroom still available I got selected to submit documents for tower 77 but I already have submitted documents for another location and my review is complete. Do you think log number 194x is good enough to play with for tower 77 I don’t wanna lose first location. If this one don’t go Thur

I recommend going with whoever gives you an apartment first! That way you have the voucher. Don’t miss the opportunity. You can submit the documents for Tower 77 but if your review is already complete with the other building then that means you were already approved by HPD.
