Section 8 & Voucher Housing in 11101 — Long Island City
ZIP code 11101 covers Long Island City and the Queensbridge area of Queens, directly across the East River from Midtown Manhattan. It is home to NYCHA's Queensbridge Houses — the largest public housing development in North America — along with other affordable buildings. The F, N, W, and 7 trains make this one of the most connected affordable-housing locations in the city for voucher holders.
The largest are Hunter S Point South A at 150 50th Ave (619 apartments, tax-credit affordable housing); Hunter S Point South B at 155 Borden Ave (306 apartments, tax-credit affordable housing); Affordable apartments at 2614 Jackson Ave (98 apartments, tax-credit affordable housing); River View Gardens (80 apartments, senior housing (62+)). 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.
