June 1, 2021 By Allie Griffin
A new affordable housing lottery has opened for eight units in a recently-constructed building in Woodside—where rental prices start at $1,750 a month.
The units are located in a nine-story, 74-unit building at 46-02 70th St. — in a building that fronts Queens Boulevard.
The affordable units are for those who make up to 130 percent of the area median income (AMI).
Two studio apartments are available at $1,750 a month to households of one to three people who make between $60,000 and $139,620 combined annually.
Six two-bedroom units are available at $2,400 a month to households of two to five people who make between $82,286 and $167,570 combined annually.
A breakdown of the full income requirements is below.
