Subsidized Renters at The Edge Getting Antsy
Along with a pretty picture gallery showing the just-about-completed construction at The Edge in Williamsburg (which got FHA approval at the end of last year), Curbed reports that there some grousing among the ranks of the lucky renters who won the lottery last year for a below-market-rate apartment in the upscale waterfront complex.

Along with a pretty picture gallery showing the just-about-completed construction at The Edge in Williamsburg (which got FHA approval at the end of last year), Curbed reports that there some grousing among the ranks of the lucky renters who won the lottery last year for a below-market-rate apartment in the upscale waterfront complex. Seems that they were under the impression that they could move in last month. Not the case, says Edge management, March was always the plan, though they’d thought there was a chance of moving the subsidized renters in early. The hold-up? Seems DOB hasn’t coughed up to C of O yet.

To esshhee, the appliances are just plain GE white. Also there are only one hall, bathroom and kitchen light fixtures, so be prepare to pay lamps for the bedrooms. Hope you and your family hear something soon!!
Thank You “CJG12715” .
Also, How are the appliances?
We are so curious and in the dark.
Thanks again
To eesshhee, they are not fabulous but they are descent. 2br apt are 840 sq ft…the one bedroom is smaller and as well as a studio…for the price we are paying, we are getting our money worth. The building quiet, no one bothers. Hope I helped. Good luck
to CJG12715, do you mind me asking what the apartments are like? My husband and I are in the grueling waiting process, and have yet to see the apartments.
To Jayg2010, the buildings that i suppose ppl began to move into was 34 and 27 North 6. But it seems most apartments are not finish as of yet.Well Good Luck, hopefully it happens soon for you b/c I know waiting is frustrating.
Congrats to CJG12715 on moving in the edge.
Can you tell the number of your building i was check the DOB.
And some of the building still have recieved there Certs. Occupancy.
I have received my letter, but the building is still being held up for the C.O. by the DOB
To xxxluverxx, the $500 is only a deposit just in case in the process of moving, the building gets damage. They do not deposit check/money order, it is held in your file until you are fully move into the unit. Also you must set a time with management when you would be moving your belongings. Hope the information is helpful.
Congrats CJG12715! I’m really happy for you after such a long wait. You were one of the very first to go through the process and its finally over. I didn’t sign my lease or leave the deposit/1st month’s rent yet, but when I called a few weeks ago to follow up with the actual move in date they mentioned that they wanted $500 on the day of moving in just in case damages are made that day. Did they request this amount from you? Please update us on any new breaking info =) I really appreciate it and good luck with the move!
UPDATE: my family among others have gotten the “call” yesterday to move in on Saturday. Finally!!!
