Chair Louis questions unit mix and affordability levels

New York City Council · Jul 1, 2026 · starts 1:29:44 · 34 sec

Chair Louis asks for the unit mix breakdown. Downing reports 110 studio apartments, 34 one-bedroom units, and one two-bedroom super unit, all for seniors at 60% AMI and below, with approximately 44 units set aside for formerly homeless individuals at a deeper affordability tier.

Farah N. Louis

I have a few questions about this proposal.

Farah N. Louis

You are proposing a senior affordable residential unit as part of your application.

Farah N. Louis

Can you provide a breakdown of the unit mix?

Pierre Downing

So we have about 110 one-bedroom units.

Pierre Downing

Sorry, 110 studio apartments.

Pierre Downing

and 34 one-bedroom units and one two-bedroom unit.

Pierre Downing

100% of the units are set aside for families, I mean for seniors at 60% of AMI and below.

Pierre Downing

And we have a deeper affordability tier for formerly homeless, and that's approximately 44 of the 144 units.

Farah N. Louis

All right.
