315 East 29th Street in East Flatbush: 3 Affordable Studios on Housing Connect, $2,022 a Month

19 min readBy VoucherMatch Editorial Team
Quick answerAs of October 19, 2026, NYC Housing Connect lists lottery 7687, "315 East 29th Street Apartments," in East Flatbush, Brooklyn. It has three studios at 80% AMI, each $2,022 a month. The listing has no deadline, and applications are not open. The permit is for a new four-story building with a penthouse and 15 apartments. With a voucher, the minimum income does not apply, and the rent is under the 2026 CityFHEPS studio maximum.

Last checked: October 19, 2026, against the Housing Connect listing for lottery 7687, read at the start and end of the session, and Housing Connect's open-lottery search, which did not list it either time; the Housing Connect FAQ; HPD's guide Applying for Affordable Housing; CityFHEPS form DSS-8r; Department of Buildings DOB NOW filings (jobs B01276709, B01181029 and B01181031), older job filings and certificates of occupancy; HPD's Affordable Housing Production by Building data; PLUTO; ACRIS records for Brooklyn block 5195, lot 78; City Planning's GeoSearch; HUD's Small Area Fair Market Rents; the MTA's station data; and New York YIMBY's February 19, 2025 report, read in the Internet Archive's copy. The listing sets the rules; confirm there before you apply. How VoucherMatch reports these guides and corrects errors: how we report.

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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Certificate of occupancyThe Department of Buildings' sign-off that a building, or part of it, can be lived in.
  • 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.

Watch outon October 19, 2026, the listing carried six images. VoucherMatch left all six out. The outside view shows a finished, landscaped building, but the City's records show a building whose first permit came in May 2026 and that has no certificate of occupancy. The lobby rendering shows, through its glass doors, a street scene with the words "connecticut" and "View - Nov 2020" printed over it. The four other room renderings came from the same set. None could be tied to this building. The photos here show subway and bus stops near the building, not the building.
