This looks like it's turning out to be a cool spot to live in. I really like the colors on the facade.

NYguy · #**170** Posted **Jul 7, 2014, 2:11 PM**

Nice shot, exciting area for developments.

So far the facade looks less atractive than in the renders. I wonder if the will indeed install those old-WTC-like tridents, at least there some things prepared to attach something, the upper par of the faced looks more like the renderings.

Why is so much affordable housing going into projects on the East River, the ones with the best views of Manhattan (Astoria Cove & Hunter's Point). Can't more affordable housing be put into the bases of towers that have no view. Seems a bit of a waste.

This particular development (the Hunter's Point south development) is a city development. This is just one phase of it. As far as the other developments go, there has always been a percentage of development to be set aside as "affordable housing" in order for the developers to build larger than they normally would have. Of course, they could build a smaller development without the affordable housing.

The development of tall, glassy, high-rent towers has been booming on the western Queens waterfront for a few years now, but the area has yet to see as substantial a stake in affordable housing as with the two in-development Hunters Point South towers by Related Companies along with Phipps Houses. The 925 apartments shared between the two buildings, Hunters Point South Commons and Crossing, will be priced below market rate in perpetuity. Senior VP of Related Frank Monterisi, a Queens native, emphatically expressed the developments as an effort to give families and working people so important to the city's fabric a reasonable, even lovely place to live in the thick of it all.

The two buildings will have a mix of studios to three-bedroom apartments, and will have amenities more common to the pricey developments a block north than to any 100-percent below market rate building. To give a sense of the asking rents in the buildings, low-income studios will start at $494, and three-bedrooms at $743. Moderate income studios will start at $1,561, and three-bedrooms at $2,729. Occupancy of the buildings will be determined by a housing lottery which can be applied to via the city's HousingConnect website. The lottery closes tonight, December 15, at 11:59 p.m. so for all the fence-sitters and procrastinators out there, look on.
