What apartment would you choose? Studio for $2300 or 1 Bed for $2900?

Won in a lottery. Midtown manhattan. I like the studio price, but can technically afford the 1 bedroom.

What would you go with?

context: single guy, no kids, mostly at work or out, use home to wind down.

Update:

I think I found exact specs of the apartments.

Studio
1Bed

Opinions Please (Lottery Unit)

Considering moving out of my housing lottery apartment due to the noise from neighbors. Feeling conflicted or worried I’ll regret it if the next state doesn’t work out.
😩

For context I have credentials and am working. Current apartment won’t go over a comfortable number - ever. Even if my income increases.

Is This Normal?

EDIT: I called. It’s legit. Mitchell Lama can charge that $75 fee since it’s a separate housing entity run by state, but endorsed by HDC.

got this email this morning about this lottery I applied to, but it says to put $75 down as a deposit before being put into a waitlist. Is that normal?

If it is normal: how long does it usually take to hear back? This is Knickerbocker Village in Manhattan.

I want to sublet my lottery apartment in Manhattan, but

throwaway for obvious reasons. but I have a rent stabilized apartment in Chelsea ($1,500)

im super aware of how lucky I am and how many people want this. I’m a born and raised new yorker, but lately I’ve been having the urge to travel for couple months to a year. so I want to sublet my apartment. My biggest fear is that I’ll find someone and when the time comes that they are suppose to move out… they won’t want too, then I have a squatter situation.

can anyone offer helpful advice or experiences. I have a great apartment that I don’t want to lose but I really want to travel and see more of the world, before I’m older and I can’t anymore.

thanks in advance.

Willets point commons One bedroom apartment tour

Hello!

A bit of a late post, but in September I was offered an opportunity to tour an apartment because my lottery number came up. Unfortunately, I didn’t take it because while I was in the “income range”, it was still too much a month to live reasonably. This video is of the 1-bedroom apartment.

Will try to answer whatever questions i can.

My log# was under 1500, for those wondering

Hello!

A bit of a late post, but in September I was offered an opportunity to tour an apartment because my lottery number came up. Unfortunately, I didn’t take it because while I was in the “income range”, it was still too much a month to live reasonably. The first video is the studio apartment. I’ll post the 1 bedroom they offered me in a 2nd thread since I dunno how to post 2 videos on mobile.

I’ll try to answer any questions if you guys have any

Jasper Residential - MGNY Re-Rental

Has anyone received an invitation to apply to the Jasper building in LIC yet? I believe it has been close to a month since the building was listed on MGNY’s page so am curious to know if anyone has gotten lucky!
