Thank you for giving me hope! Yeah, I haven't heard anything about The Eliza being completed or if it's still under construction, so I would assume the latter. Hopefully, applicants can start hearing back by the end of the year.

I was asked to submit documents in mid December, and contacted by a leasing agent maybe two weeks ago for more documentation. I've talked to them a couple of times on the phone and they said it'll be ready in February? But I live in the area and the building doesn't look done at all, seems like maybe by March it'll be done idk. My log was 4XX.

Sounds like CB preference. Congrats and good luck!

I’m really hopeful I’ll be called by March? Hopefully they don’t fill CB preference before lol

What's your log number? Hopefully you hear from them in March!

drose94, good luck and congratulations! Let us know how the building looks when it's done being constructed hehe. I hear that they're making the lottery apartments even smaller nowadays and I'm hoping The Eliza is different ;-;

Not gonna lie the floor plans look really small lol. Like especially compared to apartments in the neighborhood. Really sad ten years ago you could get places further down in the heights at the 40-50% AMI rates for this lottery and they’d have been huge. Now? No chance unless you’re lucky enough to get into a rs unit and contest the rental history for overpayment if it was illegally destabilized lol.

I’m in the low 6000s with CB. I can’t tell if that’s good or bad yet lol. But hopefully they get to me before the 20% change takes place! I’ve been applying for these since 2014

Yeah, they do look kinda small, I was trying to have the benefit of the doubt. Developers are just getting so greedy and trying to make more apartments with less space for more money. I hate it hereeeee sigh

I watched the community board meeting with HPD for this building and there was a lot of criticism of the unit sizes and the disproportionate number of studio and 1 bedroom apartments when CB 12 is overwhelmingly populated by families and people who live multi-generationally and HPD basically said it was to cram as many units into the size of the building they were able to build under Inwood zoning laws (which affect the allowable height)
