Section 8 & Voucher Housing in 10039 — Harlem
ZIP code 10039 covers the northern Harlem area of Manhattan along the Harlem River, near the Polo Grounds and Jackie Robinson Park. It is home to NYCHA's Polo Grounds Towers, a large public housing development, along with other affordable buildings. The B, D, and C trains and bus routes connect the area to the rest of Manhattan, a practical choice for voucher holders.
The largest are Ralph J. Rangel Houses (983 apartments, public housing); Affordable apartments at 2730 8th Ave Frnt 1 (448 apartments, tax-credit affordable housing); Affordable apartments at 206 W 148th St (100 apartments, tax-credit affordable housing); Churchill House (98 apartments, project-based section 8). In project-based Section 8 buildings and public housing the subsidy comes with the apartment, so you do not need your own voucher and rent is generally about 30% of adjusted income. Tax-credit buildings have rents capped by area income instead.

These buildings have federal rent subsidies attached to the unit — you apply to the building directly and pay about 30% of your income. Most keep their own waiting list, separate from the housing authority's voucher list. Tax-credit buildings are different: their rents are capped based on area income, not set at 30% of your income — contact the management office for current rents.

About This Program in New York
In New York City, Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers are run by NYCHA, HPD and New York State HCR, and NYCHA also runs public housing. With a voucher or in public housing, rent is generally about 30% of adjusted household income.
How to Apply in New York
Project-based Section 8, senior and disability buildings keep their own waiting lists — call the building's management office. Apply for NYCHA public housing through NYCHA. Tax-credit apartments are often listed on NYC Housing Connect. New York City and New York State law ban source-of-income discrimination, so landlords can't refuse your Section 8 voucher or CityFHEPS.
