Earlier this week, Curbed reported that one of the first affordable housing developments financed under Mayor Bill de Blasio’s housing plan will kick off its lottery today. The former school building at 525 West 145th Street in Hamilton Heights has been rehabbed into apartments and a community space and now goes by the name The Residences at PS 186.
Who the hell wants to live in a former school building? What gives?
For me, it would be great! The layouts don't look too bad and I love that there will be a boys & girls club in the building! For parents, this would be convenient :-)
I remember that building was abandoned for a long long time. It had basically become a real blight. Lots of lowlifes and homeless headquartered around there. Are those shady hotels still up the block from there?
