Main Points
New York City has opened a lottery for 57 affordable apartments in Queens, offering rents ranging from $1,842 to $5,200 per month. The units are part of the DOMI residential complex at 29‑24 40th Avenue in Long Island City. Applications will be accepted through NYC Housing Connect until November 10, 2026, for households of one to seven people who meet the income limits for each unit. The lottery includes studio, one‑, two‑, and three‑bedroom apartments. Fourteen studios rent for $1,842 per month and five one‑bedroom units rent for $1,962. These 19 lower‑cost units are available to households earning up to 70 % of the area median income (AMI). The remaining 38 units are in the 130 % AMI category and have higher rents and income requirements. All applicants must demonstrate annual household incomes between $68,092 and $273,520, with the exact threshold depending on household size and unit type. Meeting the income criteria does not guarantee selection; applicants will undergo a screening and verification process. The DOMI complex offers amenities such as a gym, terrace, shared workspaces, and in‑unit laundry facilities. Tenants are responsible for electricity, including cooking and heating costs. To apply, prospective tenants must create a free account on NYC Housing Connect, search for project DOMI or lottery number 7693, and submit personal, family, and income information. The deadline for applications is Tuesday, November 10, 2026. After the application period closes, the city will conduct the lottery and may request additional documentation such as income statements, identification, and financial records. The program is part of NYC Housing Connect’s effort to provide affordable housing options amid high rental costs in the city. Article source: De Ultimo Minuto | Image credit: De Ultimo Minuto
