NYC Housing lottery is open for unaffordable apartments at an ugly ass luxury public housing tower

Jackson Heights Post

The NYC Housing Preservation & Development launched a lottery Tuesday for 14 income-restricted units in a 12-story luxury building on Jackson Avenue in Long Island City.

The development, called The Green House, is located at 10-25 Jackson Ave. —between 50th and 51st Avenues—and consists of 46 units. The building is striking since it is covered by three large murals that each measure about nine stories tall.

The 14 income-restricted units are for prospective tenants who earn up to 130 percent of the area median income. The units are far from inexpensive and are by no means for low-income workers. The most low-cost studio—at $2,431 per month—is for an individual who earns between $83,349 and $121,420.

Two-bedroom units will rent for $3,090, with applicants required to earn a household income of between $105,943 and $187,330 in order to apply.

There are 3 studios, 4 one-bedrooms and 7 two-bedrooms up for grabs.

The building includes an expansive amenity package, ground-floor retail space, and 40 parking spots.

The murals have been painted by Faile. The developer, Charney Companies, commissioned Faile to paint the murals as a means of enhancing the building and the neighborhood. Faile is known for blending fine art, street art, and popular culture together.

Charney is a Long Island City-based firm — headquartered on 46th Avenue—that also built The Jackson, a 53-unit condo building at 13-33 Jackson Ave.

Surely commies will complain about the high rents cause they don’t have a decent job.
Prove me wrong ..,

As buildings go, that one looks nice enough.

This is what the Progressives wanted. Now we are stuck with it.

Plus, it looks like they are trying to attract more outsiders to come to NY anyway and spoil them with hideous art and new ugly buildings.

The locals be damned.

Affordable?
As soon as "they" shut everything down and started printing money I knew we were in for a very bumpy ride. Bring on the increased interest rates and DemOrat recession, baby. Just finalized our second house sale and are waiting to capitalize on the declining market.

I'm sure importing millions of more illegal immigrants will help the housing market.

You see these "mentally ill" have their sponsors just like TA commie and gang, except the sponsors have more money and influence.
Like they are in charge of the money printing scam.
