An affordable housing lottery has launched for units at 2369 and 2377 Hoffman Street, an adjacent pair of four-story residential buildings in the Belmont section of The Bronx, as reported by YIMBY.

 

Designed by Gerald Caliendo Architects, the structures each yield eight, residential units.

At 130 percent of the AMI, there are two one-bedroom units with monthly rent of $1,800 for incomes ranging from $61,715 to $139,620, and four two-bedroom units with monthly rent of $2,000 for incomes ranging from $68,572 to $167,570.
