ZIP code 10473 covers the Castle Hill and Clason Point areas of the eastern Bronx, near the Bronx River and waterfront parks. It is home to NYCHA's Castle Hill Houses, a large public housing development, along with other affordable buildings. The 6 subway line at Castle Hill Avenue connects the area to the rest of the Bronx and Manhattan, a practical option for voucher holders.
The largest are Castle Hill at 2140 Seward Ave (2025 apartments, tax-credit affordable housing); James Monroe Houses (1101 apartments, public housing); Stevenson Commons (948 apartments, project-based section 8 (rad)); Academy Gardens (469 apartments, project-based section 8).

Tax-credit buildings have rents capped by area income instead.

15 subsidized & affordable buildings
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.
