An affordable housing lottery has opened in Manhattan, this time nestled up in Harlem, with studios and one-bedrooms starting at under $1,000.
Located at 224 W 124th St., the housing complex, known as the Marcus Garvey apartments, the brand-new building boasts units that are said to be affordable to households earning between 40 and 70 percent of the area’s median income.
