Words used in this report
  • Area median income (AMI)The middle income for the area, adjusted for household size. A lottery apartment "at 60% AMI" is for households earning up to about 60% of it. The agency's income chart turns each level into dollar limits.
  • Minimum incomeThe lowest yearly income the listing accepts for an apartment, so the rent is not too large a share of income. Housing Connect does not apply it to households with a voucher or rental subsidy.
  • Lottery (NYC Housing Connect)Every complete application gets a random log number. The marketing agent works through applications in log-number order within each preference group, so applying early does not help.
  • Marketing agentThe company the building hires to run its lottery and check applicants' papers.
  • Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8)Rental help run by a housing authority. You find a home, and the agency checks the unit, rent and your household before it approves payment.
  • CityFHEPS (New York City)The City Fighting Homelessness and Eviction Prevention Supplement: a City-funded rent supplement that the Department of Social Services (DSS) pays straight to the landlord.
  • Payment standard (the CityFHEPS maximum in this report)An amount the agency uses to work out housing assistance for a unit size and area. It does not mean that any home at that rent will be approved.
  • Utility allowanceThe agency's estimate of the cost of utilities you must pay. It is not a promise to pay your actual bills.
  • FMR and SAFMRHUD rent estimates for an area (Fair Market Rent) or ZIP code (Small Area Fair Market Rent). They include rent and most tenant-paid utilities. Your agency may use a different payment standard.
  • Certificate of occupancyThe Department of Buildings' sign-off that a building, or part of it, can be lived in.

Where the sources differ on the building
  • Apartments231 in the permit, HPD's data and the later certificates. 233 in the first certificate and PLUTO. 227 in an earlier version of the permit and in YIMBY. Brownstoner wrote "233-unit building".
  • NeighborhoodYIMBY wrote Cypress Hills. Brownstoner wrote East New York.
  • Rent stabilizationBrownstoner wrote that the lottery apartments are "all rent stabilized". The listing does not say so.

What it means: the certificate records do not say whether a certificate is temporary or final, so this report calls the first one the first.

The Programs the Listing Names

The listing says the building "is being constructed through the Inclusionary Program and is anticipated to receive a Tax Exemption through the 421a Tax Incentive program". The lot sits in a Mandatory Inclusionary Housing area.

The programs, in the agencies' words
  • Mandatory Inclusionary HousingHPD says it "requires a share of new housing in medium- and high-density areas that are rezoned to promote new housing production" to be "permanently affordable".
  • The options mapped hereCity Planning's data lists "Option 1 and Option 3" for the East New York Community Plan area, adopted April 20, 2016. PLUTO flags this lot for both.
  • Option 1, in HPD's fact sheet25% of residential floor area at an average of 60% AMI or lower, with "10% of floor area at 40% AMI".
  • Option 3, in HPD's fact sheet20% of residential floor area at an average of 40% AMI or lower.

What it means: the listing names no option, and no document opened says which one applies or whether the exemption was granted.

Which Rents a CityFHEPS or Section 8 Voucher Reaches

Every rent in the lottery is under the 2026 CityFHEPS maximum for its apartment size. That holds even after the utility allowances that match the listing are taken off.

This was a city lottery on NYC Housing Connect, and the listing names HPD as its agency. The Housing Connect FAQ says: "Minimum income requirements do not apply if you have a voucher or a rental subsidy. However, rent should be within maximum limits allowed by your voucher or rental assistance program."

What it means: the highest one-bedroom rent is $472 under its maximum, and the highest two-bedroom rent $363 under.

Source: rents from the Housing Connect listing; maximums from DSS-8r, dated October 14, 2026, effective April 1, 2026, which calls them "the maximum rent amounts if all utilities are included in the lease".

Watch outthe listing says "Tenant is responsible for electricity including stove, hot water and heat." The matching 2026 DSS-8r lines are "Electric with Cooking Range" and "Total (Electric Heat & Hot Water)". Together they are $232 for a one-bedroom, $305 for a two-bedroom and $454 for a four-bedroom. Taken off, the maximums become $2,502, $2,692 and $3,623, by VoucherMatch's arithmetic. The $2,634 two-bedroom is then $58 under. DSS decides which lines apply.
How household size changes the CityFHEPS amount
  • One or two peopleDSS-8r pairs them with $2,734. The $2,634 two-bedroom is $100 under that before any allowance.
  • Three or four people$2,997.
  • Five or six people$3,753. Seven or eight: $4,077. Nine or ten: $4,689.
  • Credit checkthe FAQ says "Applicants qualifying with rental subsidy are not subject to a credit check or review of rental history."

What it means: the CityFHEPS amount follows family size, not the apartment. Ask DSS before relying on any figure.

How the Rents Compare With HUD's Figure for ZIP Code 11207

Most lottery rents are well below HUD's estimate for ZIP code 11207. The $2,634 two-bedroom is the exception: it is $14 above HUD's two-bedroom figure of $2,620.
