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

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.
