$2,137 for a stupid studio? Nah. Other lotteries like 57 Via West has better studios for cheaper and the building is luxury for the same income ranges! However, I am glad the city is finally catering to some middle income.

This building is essentially more $$ for a lot less.

I saw a couple of the studios and though one of them was bigger than the Ashland one - it definitely did not feel that way.

More info and images in the post here.
This is a joke. How are these units for "middle income" people when the rent is capped at 110k/ for 1 person. The income for 1 person should be capped at 150K to qualify.

They are for low middle income people. Sorry you can't qualify on your 150K a year salary :/ *biggest tiny violin here* wtf?
No one gets catered to anymore in these lotteries unless you are 60% AMI and under and then the 120-130 % AMI and developers are only including to this to keep it from being a horrible ghetto building full of nothing but 60 %'ers and under. Those buildings wind up turning into Projects 2.0. (see the 3160 thread and any other thread about buildings that only qualify people who make 60% and below. So these fly by night developers who got mega tax breaks throw in some above income folks to make up for it. So messed up.

I am going to apply though even though I don't make any brackets.
They skipped 80 to 100 AMI like it was nothing.
This is so stupid.

of COURSE they skipped the 80-100 AMI in this section of Brooklyn, cuz they would be inundated.. So now they market their 160%ami apartments to everyone? Sorry, but those units don't deserve the tax break the city (us tax payers) provided. FTS.
