I'm trying to get one of them lottery apartments

I hit for one it was a luxury building in midtown east but I got disqualified because my income was over the max allowed for a single person

I was tight son I coulda been living in the city for peanuts

Astoria definitely got gentrified though

Not to the point Williamsburg has but a lot of people got priced out

Good post though

Dude, keep applying. My girl and I each hit 1x a year for the last 8 years or so, until we finally got into a dope spot (that we were waitlisted 3 years for). If you're over income, find a friend or realtive who has zero or low income to apply with you, because the celing expands with household size. Make sure you pour over those little newspapers like AM NY that run affordable housing ads. Send in like dozens of postcards under relatives names and if they hit, have them add you to the household. When i saw my uncle get picked for 2 affordable co-ops (aka the "pretty projects") i knew it was possible. Dont sleep on the co-ops either, bc they are filled with original tenants from the 60s who are all dying, leaving vacancy. Buildings that would normally have a 20 year wait have open their waitlists and the waits are much shorter. When you hit, submit in writing a letter asking for a status update. I could go on and on...sure the odds are like 1 in 100,000 but you apply enough, get your credit right, and be patient...you will hit

If you get a lease renewal increase from your landlord this year, fight it tooth and nail. The rental market is horrible right now and no one wants to admit it. The new buildings in downtown BK are givin ppl 2-3 months free plus a $500 amex to move in. This bubble will pop soon

But i digress...RIP P ..lol

sorry for getting this shyt off topic...especially now that the mural was vandalized again but I can talk gentrification and nyc real estate all damn day

I'd put all my money on it being some Black or Latino.

I used to live on Long Island City and would frequent QB regularly when in need of weed. Aint no white people going over there like that.

this the new gentrified NYC tho. white people don't give a fukk

and you say a lot of suspect shyt. don't quote me nomore

Yea i knew it was a rap for P after this..mobb deep only got back together for money reasons..Havoc and the rest of them mobb deep affiliates wasn't rockin wit P like that

 

[spliz]

instead of saying fukk them hating ass nikkas why dont ya'll just wake up and get the message that P left a bad taste in peoples mouths before he passed and the people of QB are responding.

Fam im one of the first people to say P was buggin sometimes. But my comment still stands. Them nikkas is crabs in a barrel in QB. Too much history and facts to say otherwise.

Good looks my g

I hit for a couple of others

One in flushing that I was under the max at the time I applied but by the time they called me I was over the income max

The other I hit recently but it was in high bridge I think and I don't wanna move back to the Bronx

I rent a studio in a co op building now

nice area and my rent ain't too bad but I need more space

I signed up on the housing connect website and I can see and apply for all the lotteries there but are there others lotteries I don't know about?

Oh I also applied for the StuyTown lottery but I got put on a waiting list

I saw this story on the news how this stock broker was able to only claim like 28k in income and he got a lottery apartment and now he claims like 200k in income and his rent stays the same wtf I was sick when I saw that lol....white dude too

I don't wanna do any fraud type shyt cuz I don't wanna get caught and get blacklisted feel me

Edit: oh btw my log # was 7 for that midtown east building I was talking about earlier

I never had a log number that low

That was the first time in my life I wish I made less money lol

I'm still fukkin tight man

 

[eastsideTT]

Yo...you bring up a very interesting point.

I actually dealt with two luxury apartment complexes with my agency had to bow out of cause no one wanted to move into them in Bedford-Stuyvesant. Brand new digs, everything inside waqs nice (on 438 Throop Ave), but why pay $2800 + a month to live in the hood? You couldn't even pay people to move in there.

$2800 luxury apartments on throop a few blocks from gates ave... why??? I kinda understand why certain people flocked to Bed Stuy because of all of the crazy old architecture and brownstones and things like that..but that's a niche thing. building one of those little pre-fab glass towers with bullshyt ass amenities and rents around $3000 seems very OD

So "they" have gentrified the hood... you'll see what's next to go. It's gonna be the white hoods. Places like Kensington, Midwood, even further south etc... those are going to be up next on the gentrification hot list. Those hoods have kinda reverse gentrified if that makes sense, traditionally white working class , now home to all sorts of immigrants. but the hipsters and out of towners will be on deck for that. But I really think this shyt is on it's last legs. And the MTA is unwittingly playing a huge part in it. "things" are fanning out further and further from the city while train service is getting worse and worse

someone link me to the NYC gentrification thread so I can stop desecrating P's legacy with this bullshyt

 

[Xtz23]

@Xtz23 doesnt like Nas at all. I agree with you overall though.

I don't hate nas but I think I fallen off as a nas fan over the last 5 years.

Dont mean to derail this thread any further but I gotta ask, donyou know anything about the new co ops built around Albee Square ? I've been thinking of moving out there.

 

[Double Burger With Cheese]

This hasnt happened to any rapper.

Like i said...Dudes are sending a message. Doing it twice confirms it. P left a foul taste in peoples mouths and the people are responding.

Like Guinness

 

[mson]

Got to be inventive with it. R.I.P P! Shout out to Havoc!

 

[mobbinfms]

been quiet but I just spoke on the phoney with someone from qb that I knew from spending time in Atlanta...


This is Sherm the Worms work. The red paint on the second vandalism was a message. No mural should be made of Prodigy in qb and Sherm got a "blood bounty " on any mural in qb related to pee. A measly one thousand for any mural destroyed and a move up in ranks.

shyt... Can't confirm any of this but I can confirm my one homie is out there up there.

This is Sherm the worm shyt... Trust me

So Sherm still that mad over the bottle to the face damn near 20 years ago...but didn't have P touched when he was alive?

I'll never understand how P was able to get away with shytting on so many people with little to no repurcussions. :prodigylol2:
