@GiniaNYT In your insightful piece on the South Street Dev. proj. you write that 70 apts will be rented at “…40% of the area’s median income.” This implies the local area. They will be rented at 40% of AMI. The ‘Area’ in AMI is an area larger than NYC. https://t.co/2YB1JiiJgW

Would have been nice if @GiniaNYT had interviewed some of the local community groups working on the zoning. Designing a better city is hard. @BklynEagle @BrooklynCB6 @bradlander @kimmelman #gowanuscanal #superfund #urbanplanning #affordablehousing
