As the affordable housing lottery for Hunter’s Point South opened up for applications, Senator Michael Gianaris encouraged residents of western Queens to apply.
“The addition of 925 permanently affordable housing units in our community is exciting, and I urge all western Queens residents to take advantage of this opportunity and apply. As more and more New Yorkers flock to our neighborhoods to live, work, and raise their families, it is vital that western Queens remains affordable, and the Hunter’s Point South development represents a major step in that direction. I wish all applicants the best of luck in this process,” said Senator Gianaris.
Senator Gianaris co-hosted a series of forums on how to apply for the housing lottery with Councilman Jimmy Van Bramer, Assemblywoman Cathy Nolan, Community Board 2, Related Companies, and city officials.
Prospective residents can apply online via the city's NYC Housing Connect website, or by mail addressed to Hunter's Point South Living, 1357 Broadway, Box 308, New York, NY 10018. The application period will run up to and through December 15th.
