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.
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.

The 421-a Tax Program the Listing Names

The listing says "This building is anticipated to receive a Tax Exemption through the 421a Tax incentive program". Its short description reads "421a 16".

HPD's page says "The 421-a Tax Incentive is a partial tax exemption for new multiple dwellings." For 421-a(16), it says projects that do not get the enhanced benefit "would have to comply with the affordability requirements and other requirements for 35 years."

B	"30% of the units must be affordable: at least 10% at up to 70% of AMI and 20% at up to 130% of AMI."
C	"At least 30% of the units must be affordable at up to 130% of AMI"

What it means: the page says the program is for projects that "commence construction between January 1, 2016 and June 15, 2022". No record opened says which option applies, or whether the exemption was granted.

Both rents are under the 2026 CityFHEPS maximum for their size. The one-bedroom is $284 under, and the two-bedroom $247 under.

This was a city lottery on NYC Housing Connect, and the listing names HPD as its agency.

What it means: these rents do not include electricity, so DSS may count a utility allowance.

Source: rents from the Housing Connect listing; maximums from DSS-8r, effective April 1, 2026, which gives them "if all utilities are included in the lease".

Does 87-57 150th Street take Section 8 or CityFHEPS?

Housing Connect accepts both, and both rents are under the 2026 CityFHEPS maximum for their size. The one-bedroom is $284 under and the two-bedroom $247 under. If DSS adds the electric and electric heat allowances, the two-bedroom is only $23 under. Ask DSS or the housing authority before you count on it.
