Housing lottery applications are open for 110 rent-stabilized apartments at a new development in the Tremont neighborhood of the Bronx. New Yorkers who earn $101,109 to $198,250 are eligible to apply, depending on the size of the household. Rents start at $2,949 for a studio.
The building at 2072 Anthony Ave. has parking spaces, bike storage lockers, a shared laundry room, and a recreation room. It’s located between the Tremont Avenue and 182-183 streets subway stations that serve the B and D trains.
Applications must be submitted online or postmarked no later than Feb. 12th.
Developer Arben Mitaj first filed plans to build the 12-story building in 2020. The property, located between 180th Street and East Burnside Avenue, now holds 111 units total.
The rent-stabilized apartments are set aside for New Yorkers earning from 130 percent of the area median income (AMI)—a metric that depends on how many people you live with. Currently the AMI for New York City is $127,100 for a three-person household. The apartments available include studios, one-, and two-bedroom apartments.
There are 59 one-bedroom apartments available for households earning from $108,172 to $165,230. The rent for these apartments is $3,155 per month.
