Affordable Apartments Are Coming to the Top of New York’s Skyline
July 28, 2023 by A new tower planned to be built for the World Trade Center campus has been cleared. The building will be 1,200 units and 400 of them will be set aside for low- and middle-income renters. 80 of those apartments will be offered to people who lived or worked in Lower Manhattan between Sept. 11, 2001, and the end of June 2002. The plan will allow for substantial increase in affordable housing in an area that for its pieds-à-terre for some of the wealthiest people in the world.
