One of the trendiest neighborhoods in Brooklyn is in search of tenants.
A Fort Greene affordable housing lottery is underway at The Everly, a stunning, sleek facade at 180 Ashland Place with modern units, enticing amenities, and a fairly reasonable price tag.
If you were thinking about an apartment upgrade in the near future, perhaps now is the time to get your paperwork together. (Plus we have expert-backed tips for landing an affordable housing lottery!)
Inside the Fort Greene affordable housing lottery at 180 Ashland Place
The Everly has 171 units up for grabs — studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments — and the smallest and least expensive of the bunch begins at $1,793 per month. In NYC terms, that ain’t too shabby!
What one apartment might lack in its floor plan it more than makes up for with its features. All units feature sleek, stainless steel kitchen appliances, modern bathroom countertops and showers, and airy windows with scenic cityscape views. You don’t need to tell us twice!
But what sets this place apart from its neighbors is the added features: an outdoor recreation area, a rooftop pool, a spa, gym, a yoga studio, and BBQ grills. For those traveling with four-legged friends in tow, the building is pet-friendly with one dog or cat per unit with a 50 pound limit. (And Fido will be glad to know there’s a dog park on the premises.)
Amenities are available for $150 per month, and for 80% AMI units, the fitness center can only be accessed for $85 per month. In terms of bills, tenants are responsible for electric; gas for cooking, heat, and hot water are already included in the rent.
But there is one downfall: the deadline to apply is quickly approaching. The only thing scarier this Halloween than ghosts and ghouls would be missing out on a cool opportunity. Visit the NYC Housing Connect website to start your application.
