- 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.

How the 2024 Rezoning Set the Affordable Share
The 2024 rezoning made the lot a Mandatory Inclusionary Housing area, so part of the building must stay affordable for good. The listing ties 31 apartments to Inclusionary Housing and 2 to the 421-a tax exemption.
- 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 approved Options 1 and 2. On March 28, 2024 the City Council's Land Use Committee voted 8-0-0 to replace Option 2 with the "Deep Affordability Option". PLUTO flags the lot for options 1 and 3.
- 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" and "No income band above 130% AMI".
- Option 3, in HPD's fact sheet20% of residential floor area at an average of 40% AMI or lower.
- 421-aHPD calls it "a partial tax exemption for new multiple dwellings". A building receiving it "may be subject to rent stabilization".
What it means: the listing does not say which option the building uses. By VoucherMatch's count its 31 Inclusionary Housing apartments average 56% AMI, though HPD measures by floor area.
Source: HPD's Inclusionary Housing page, MIH fact sheet (April 2025) and 421-a page; the Council's letter of March 28, 2024; PLUTO.
Key pointHPD says the current 421-a program "is available to projects that commence construction between January 1, 2016 and June 15, 2022". City records show a foundation permit for this lot first issued June 1, 2022. No document opened says when construction began for 421-a purposes or whether the exemption was granted.
124 Apartments in the Building, 33 in the Lottery
The lottery holds 33 of the 124 apartments, all one- and two-bedrooms. HPD's data counts 31 of them as affordable. The other 2 are the 421-a apartments at 130% AMI.

Watch outeach minimum income equals 12 months of rent plus $252 a month for a one-bedroom, or $396 for a two-bedroom, divided by 0.35. That is VoucherMatch's arithmetic. The listing does not say what the added amount is for.
Which Rents a CityFHEPS or Section 8 Voucher Reaches
A voucher holder does not have to meet the minimum income. Of the 33 rents, 28 are under the 2026 CityFHEPS maximum for the same apartment size. The other 5 are the 110% AMI two-bedrooms and the 130% AMI one-bedrooms.
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."

| Apartment size | Lowest rent | Highest rent | CityFHEPS maximum |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 bedroom | $967 | $3,883 | $2,734 |
| 2 bedrooms | $1,069 | $3,620 | $2,997 |
What it means: the 40% and 60% AMI rents are $1,160 to $1,928 under the maximum. The 110% AMI two-bedroom is $623 over it, and the 130% AMI one-bedroom $1,149 over.
Source: rents from the Housing Connect listing; maximums from DSS-8r, effective April 1, 2026, "if all utilities are included in the lease".
Watch outthe maximums assume the rent covers all utilities, and the listing does not say which ones it includes. The Borough President's 2023 report recorded that the planned building "will be fully electric". A voucher program subtracts a utility allowance when tenants pay. This report subtracts none, because the listing names no utility.
- One or two peopleDSS-8r gives $2,734. Every 40% and 60% AMI rent fits.
- Three or four people$2,997. A $3,883 one-bedroom is still $886 over.
- Five peopleDSS-8r pairs five or six people with three bedrooms, at $3,753. That is $133 above the 110% AMI two-bedroom's $3,620. Ask DSS how it treats five people in a two-bedroom.
- Credit checkthe FAQ says "Applicants qualifying with rental subsidy are not subject to a credit check or review of rental history."
